34 inch Fire boat

34" fire boat completed late 2015 and took all the silver at a show.

VERY VERY NICE MATE............NO WONDER SHE WON THE GONGS........well done.

HI Alan, I have just built a 46" Fire Float, I have got a problem with the towing arm. Have you got any drawings and or photos?  I have found several photo's showing the arm but the definition is poor. Hope you can help

Regards

Mark

I will look for some photo's tomorrow, but don't hold your breath as I did lose a lot when my old laptop gave up the ghost.

Sorry Mark, couldn't find any relevant photo's that would help you, have a look on a site called Model Boats Website, quite a bit of information on fireboats. Have a look at my part build under Building related and then the thread, Fireboat update, a few years old now, there are a couple of photo's of the tow hook on my build.

Hope this is of some help.

Alan

Hope these help.

Excellent level of detail, an impressive model

Hi Guys,

Amazed to find this site, and this Boat in particular.

We have just rediscovered the families Missing 36' Fire/Rescue Boat that was originally built in the mid 70's. It had been missing presumed disposed of for 25+ years.

I have had a bit of experience with RC cars in my earlier Years. 

We are hoping to get it back up and functioning in time. I will hope to get a couple of pictures up and then see how I can go about Repairing and refurbishing it. It was used as a Rescue Boat with Remote Released Grappling Hook for recovering other Boats that went Flat or got stuck and Working fixed direction Fire Nozzles . 

thanks
Mike

Hi Mike, is it an aerokits, kielkraft, or norstar version. I have an original 1950's aerokits 34inch. And also a 1970's Norstar one that I'm in the process of building.
Cheers Colin.
