    I do not have it yet at hand
    But for sure I will get this boat
    sometime next month
    As we all know dumas donzi z65 is hard to come by
    Well I have found one similar to the dumas donzi
    same dimensions and everything 42""
    Or this one here

    and he has other types of fiberglass hulls as well
    but for this fishermen yacht

          I know I found that too but that thing is just big hahah
          Youll need a marine engine to push that boat
          The dumas I believe is 42 inchess

              I look forward for the pictures and any information. I also thought that the Expresscraft might be too big for electric..... I have always wanted building a fisherman.

              I have been in the hobby for Many years and have several types boats. At the moment I am enjoying a lot the semi scale models and with those the Bigger the Better : )

              Keep us up to date.

                  I think something like this
                  With the flybridge and tuna tower looks better
                  But would it still be stable on the water? Since is much taller ?
                  Or heavier on the top than the first boat I posted?

                    It would definitely be less stable in the water. However those semi scale model are a pleasure to watch at scale speed. They need not be a speed demon : )

                    When it's windy I avoid taking out my Bristol Bay. It is very sensitive to wind. However it is great sight when it's cruising around on calm water. I actually bought the BBay at Hobbietat in Hawaii a couple of years ago whe I was on holidays.....

                    Here is a small wooden fisherman boat that I have recently started. It's about 18 inches. I will add a number or details when finished and plan to go no more than 5 miles per hour : )

                    So have you got the hull yet?

                          I know what you mean about the bristolbay
                          I have one also
                          You wont believe what happened to my friends bristolbay
                          We were sailing
                          When the gust of wind came and instead of turning the back of the boat to where the wind was coming from
                          Instead he went sideways against the wind hahahahha
                          First and last of his bristolbay
                          First and last Maiden voyage of bristolbay: http://youtu.be/S9Hw0n6_cQ0

                            Oh no. I hope the boat did not sink......

                            I think I have been to that pond a couple of times before. It's the one opposite Ala Moana shopping centre, isn't it? I saw a few rc boaters there....
