Just something a little more relaxing than a fast electric

[Old School]

Something I have been building of late. I started with a Shunbo/Hobbyking "Monsoon" and disposed of everything above the deck and fitted the rig and sails from a Kyosho Seawind. I radically altered the stock mainsheet control system and replaced both the stock rudder servo (rubbish) plus replaced the stock sailwinch with a high torque Hi-Tec unit.

I also had to increase the weight of the stock ballast bulb on the end of the keel fin. Also the stock rudder was more rubbish and a Kyosho Seawind rudder was modified to fit. Image shows the current state of the boat with just the keel fin and ballast bulb to fit.
