Desctription from Matthias Rom, 17th May 2004
The boat is build up from an old Gunze kit, some parts where missing. So I rebuild them from scratch. The colors are red / white / green like the italian flag.
The name of the boat is ISABELLA, I made the stickers by myself.
The motor is a tuned 550 size electric motor. I installed also a sound-module with diesel sound, a horn, starting the motor sound etc. and the lights are all working.
The boat is running very well, I will try to make a pic while it is at top-speed on his foils!
By the way, I'm a collector of hydrofoils and amphicars, my next projects are a DUKW and a HEGI hydrofoil. I'm searching a VS-8 by HARHAUS or 32 parallel ........
