No hpiguy, I went nuts and got a Creole Queen off fleabay. It came with all kinds of goodies! RAM caliope, steam whistle, Mack smoke geneator, 2 ESC's(one for bow thruster),Dumas motor and gear reduction and some other stuff I'm not quite sure about. It came with the hull already built and I'm pretty sure it's a better job than I could have done. It's sanding out very nice. Does anyone think this hull requires glassing, or would sealing and paint be enough, seems really solid to me. Even though it came with electric running gear, I'm still wanting to go steam. The nice engines I see seem very reasonable as far as price, but the boilers are beyond my budget!!! I successfully built a steam "monster truck" with a large Wilesco twin DA. I know they(Wilesco) are considered "toy" steamers, but it moved that heavy truck(slowly) along for 8-10 minutes. I doubt a riverboat would be near as much a load! Slill thinkin"
