Status: offline 		Hey everyone, ive been a member for a while and i posted a while ago but this is my first post for quite a while. I recently got two new CR-914's from David Ramos at Chesapeake Performance Models. They are painted with the graphics from the America's Cup teams Alinghi and Team New Zealand (im a big fan of TNZ). Thought you might want to see, i think he did an incredible job. Im trying to post pictures but it says there is an error saving the files to the disk. Help would be much appreciated

Status: offline 		they are in .jpg format (which i think is right) and im not sure about the size (it is 411 kb but im not sure if that is the number that is important) Thanks again for the help...

also is it acceptable on rcu to link to sites such as photobucket, because if i could do that then everyone could see the full size images

I took the background out as it was too confusing.

Later,

Lot of coin for a little paint - The full boat was probably painted for not much more.

Oracle, TNZ, and Stars and Stripes were customers of mine in the last cup. I got a practice sail in on Stars (day before she sank in San Diego). Amazing boats.

If the cup goes to Oracle or NZ I would be pretty happy.

Some beautiful boats you have added to your fleet there. I have only seen him running them at the Annapolis boat show. Unfortunately my RC sailboats are in no way worthy of paint that good looking
