Default Boothbay Oyster boat

I'm a little afraid to do much bragging about a boat or the manufacturor, but I think I've found one of the easiest 'scale' boats on the market. Very good instructions (if you follow them!), good quality materials (wood) and complete except for the electronics, motor and glue/paint(normal).
Didn't take pictures while building, sorry, but here are a few. Made one modification, a Becker rudder. Doesn't really need it but they just fascinate the @#$$ out of me . Plans call for two battery packs, only had one, so the run time isn't all that great (motor's too big too, but it's what I had... the ducks hate it, I love it!).

PS - If it's easy for me to build, anybody can do it! Thumbs, noses and CA still don't mix well.
Foirgot to mention it's by 'Midwest'...
