Is this the most ridiculous steam powered model you've ever seen? It never ceases to amaze me just what junk some people will try to sell on Ebay!
I suppose I shouldn't be so critical, as it was probably someones pride and joy, but I just couldn't help myself with this one!

...at least he didn't put paddlewheels on it...
A good point Mick - Thank god for small mercies eh? ;)
Don't knock it Eddy. A Mamod engine, boiler, two channel radio, batteries and a hull, plus three litres of meths!
The bits add up - and no reserve!

True, it's not a bad 'bunch of stuff' but if I had it I'd have to convert the cabin cruiser to electric power and use the engine for something more suitable (pity it's a single acting engine though so only runs in one direction...)
