Model yacht - Moonraker When I was searching to model yachts, I found this one. This is a model kit from a german company Graupner. I love this model I must say. Look at this pictures of yhis RC model.
Roy, I have adjusted the size of the image above. Please keep all images under 640 pixels wide. Thanks!
My model of a Sunseeker Manhattan 48 http://www.yachtforums.com/forums/sunseeker-yacht/6387-my-first-sunseeker.html#post38066 Who have some more pictures of nice model yachts, display or RC models
Very nice Roys. I liked the model of the Moonraker though. She looks as fast as the the real person. High attack angle and everything.
The best in the world Check out Robby Eddy's work http://www.yachtmodels.com/yacht-models.html I've been to his workshop and seen a number of his models and they are superb, with awesome detail and beautifully built Tom Perkins (Andromeda la Dea, Atlantide, Mariette of 1915 and Maltese Falcon) has one of each of his yachts and they are incredible) Highly recommended
Oh definitely, Mr. Eddy's work is outstanding. I await the finish product of the Maltese Falcon. I have not seen any updates on his website though?
There is a picture of it if you go to the 2007 brouchure. http://www.yachtmodels.com/announcements.htm
Thanks Brandonw, the model is indeed really far in construction. From 1st glance analyzation, just the spars of the dynarig, the two Pascoe tenders, the radar and communications mast, teaking and the little other details are to be added. Superb stuff Eddy. He should get something eqivelent to the Nobel Peace Prize for his efforts and work.
There is a real nice replica of the M/Y Kingdom 5KR.. It would have been very interesting if there were more pics of it.
The Ferretti 80 and Pershing 54 are done by Promocean Models. At the moment we are doing a model of the very new Sunseeker Superhawk43, scale 1/10.
