Thanks Devil and Ping!

Yes, it is the Tamiya Ocean Effect Plate on the Hercules.

Nicely done. Is the water one of those Tamiya plates?

Fantatstic job....I used to see those boats around the Keys all the time.

Thanks, Gentlemen!

A rainy day project that turned into about 5 days.

I now wish that I had tried to replace the dome tower with an open tripod tower. I don't think that I had the skill at the time, but maybe I do now. My ambition and confidence are slowly building up.

This is a nice little build you have there Carl.

Nice work! :thumbs_up_1:

It was a fun build for me too Carl. I especially like the appearence of the waves.

Has anyone actually put together one of these hydrofoils that come with many Skywave and DRAGON 1/700 kits?

Here is my rendition.......It was fun.
