    Miss Canada III

    Here are some pictures of the Miss Canada III that I built for my good friend Jim Vaughn. Hope you like them. We are planning to run the boat this Saturday and will send pictures if it floats.

          Photos just don't do the model justice, it is truly awesome in person. Can't wait for Saturday to see it run!

              It is powered by a Lehner 2280 with 6S/1P lipos. It will be interesting to see how it behaves.

              I built it from a kit. The seats were made by Brian Blazer's mother and they are real leather. They are in the boat loose so that they can be take out and not get wet.

                Wow Tom! Outstanding workmanship.I would love to see this run.
                I see the original every year in Clayton, NY, it's one of my favorite boats in the museum.

                  Thanks Tom,

                  Visiting Clayton is on my bucket list. I'll try and post some pictures of it running when we take it to the pond this Saturday.

                    I spend as much time there as I can in the summer. We have a small place just down river. It's a great place, you would love it. Let me know when you want to come up!

                        The museum in Clayton is on my list too. We've been to the Islands a bunch of times and to Clayton too, just never made it to the museum. Maybe next summer. It is beautiful up there.

                            Where did the kit come from Tom? Osbourne?
