Status: offline 		Everywhere I go on RCU it seems, there's another "post your pictures" thread, most are successful. However, I don't see one here.

Ok... I can honestly admit that this thread will either be successful with multiple pages or it will be a complete waste of time and go nowhere

Post some pictures people!!!!!!!

Status: offline 		Sweet boats everyone, I really mean that. They all look great. I love it how unique some of them are, from design all the way to paint.

I am building a Cajun Gator from his 24" simple plans. It will be a .40 pusher, all I have done so far is cut out the bottom, all of the cage and also the transom, and the engine mounts. All I need is time to complete it, I already have everything I will need. I would post pictures but for one it's not done, and also I started building it in another state and it's currently still there Don't worry though, I will finish it some day and will post pics here.

Keep those pictures coming!

One change though, feel free to post pictures of any rc airboat, such as current builds, hulls waiting to be restored, obviously finished airboats and rtr's, your buddys airboat, that cool design you saw online, etc.

Thanks.

THANKS RON, for posting the video ..better start planning of Kalamazoo fun run 2008, i really enjoy goin there even drivin' 5 hrs.

John, engine cowling and motor mount came from vortex, the motor stand came from aquacraft, i used Tower hobbies .46 engine,,,,though needs little triming and cutting for fitting..
