Paul Chilcott built this stunning floating replica of the 'Voyager of the Seas' in under 12 months. The hull was carved from a single block of blue foam. The detail on this cruise ship is remarkable and even features a climbing wall, wave rider and outside cinema just as the full size vessel. Commentary provided by Steve Dean.
Please note that the audio for this recording was modified to eliminate as much of the background music while retaining the commentary. A previous unmodified upload to YouTube was rejected due to violation of copyright.

Not your everyday RC boat. I suspect a rowing boat...especially a dual rowing boat takes quite a bit of engineering !

I liked this. Designed purely from very old pictures of the full size apparently. Respect to the builder for the creation of this vessel. Filmed at the International Model Boat Show 2017.

I've always been fascinated by these and was very luck to see 3 very different types at the International Model Boat Show this year. I doubt they are very easy to build. Get it wrong and I suspect it would sink very quickly and destroy the electronics. These worked perfectly though!

...and some rowing marines. This was a good show to see some quirky watercraft. Not easy recovering the smaller lifeboat but they did it.
