Runabout Model Power Boat

I made this boat a couple of years ago and thought I'd share. it's a dual propeller remote control boat which I printed with transparent filemant and loaded with blue LEDs. Your tastes may differ, but it certainly turned heads.

It's a double stepped high speed craft with a classic Riva runabout hullform. The classic look might look better painted rather than bright glowing blue, but it's your choice.

The equipment I used were two Overlander BM400 220 Watt motors and a 7.2V NiMH battery. It would fit bigger batteries but I've not tested the performance at higher speeds.

I covered the hull with West Systems Epoxy for strength the durability. It also helped with the surface finish.
