Hiya from frozen Fairbanks, Alaska
« on: January 23, 2007, 09:22:09 AM »
Hello all! I'm getting back into R/C modelling after 30 years away from it. Lots of spare time inside when its 40 below outside! I want to build a steam powered sternwheeler or side wheeler, preferably a kit with a glass hull. Anyone out there with some ideas where I can get one let me know!
Thanks! Dave Johnston

I suppose it depends on how much you want to do yourself Dave - If your after a full kit, the only one that springs to mind is the Saito Delta Queen sternwheeler..... But it's expensive!

If your only after a fibreglass hull then there are a number of alternatives. It also depends on how large you want the model to be?

40 degrees below! And here I am in the UK, complaining because its's 3 degrees below, and we've had gale force winds for weeks!

Anyway, welcome to Paddleducks!
