Hey Guys,
Here is a little project I've been working on for a while and it's finally ready. This is a 1/5 scale GN boat that is 48" long with wood deck graphics. These boats are all hand layed fiberglass and capped in white gel coat. The wood deck boat shown here was built for Ben Marrone the owner of GN 305. We are also building two more for Skip Tuttle the owner of GN 711, his will have custom paint instead of wood to match his color scheme. We are currently about 70% done with the tooling on the Schiada RC, we should have a boat in 4-6 weeks. It will also be 48" long. All boats come stock in white gel coat, other colors, custom graphics and custom paint are available on a per bid basis depending upon what you want. An all white GN boat sells for $650 + freight. The Schiada may be a little more, we'll know more after we have the first one built. It takes about 2-4 weeks from order to delivery.
For now we are just selling the hulls. Later on we will develop a ready to run boat that we will sell as a package. There are 1/5 scale V-Drives available if you want to rig them like a real V-Drive. Or you can run a surface drive system out the transom like most RC boats are now. You can also go electric. I have the information on the V-Drives if interested. Let me know what you guys think of these boats if we get enough interest later on we will build a flat bottom Sanger bubble deck, Biesmeyer, Hondo/Cole etc, etc.
If you guys are interested in ordering one or have any questions call me at (415)798-0551 I am in Napa, CA.
