Star 45 RC Sailboat Build Blog

Since I've now sold the T37 , and have completed these two Star 45's (well... one Star 45 and one Salish 475), I thought it would be a good time to end these two blogs and focus on one generic RC Sailboat blog where I could post any new RC sailboat projects. Please check out my new blog at http://www.rcmodelyachts.com/ . Or you can use my older address of http://rcsailboats.blogspot.com/ . If interested in the Star 45 Construction Manual , you have TWO options: 1. An electronic PDF version for $20.      FIRST: Email me for details and payment. You will send a PayPal payment to my account and then I will email you the PDF. 2. For a full-color, printed copy (they're coil bound so they will stay open to any page!), GO TO Lulu Press . They are $35 and only take a week or so to get to you. Do NOT email me for a printed copy... order through LULU PRESS. So with that, I'm officially signing off! Peace!

Went out to the Seattle Model Boat Pond near Lake Union today to sail the Salish 475 radio controlled sailboat. Not much wind and pretty dark clouds, but whatever... it's May in Seattle. :-P When I get a chance to go out on a sunnier and windier day, hopefully I can find someone to go with me and sail it so I can take some proper pictures with my real camera instead of all these iPhone pictures. Now what to build next... I've already bought a Proctor Enterprises kit of a 1/6 scale Sopwith Camel. Or maybe I'll build another Pygmy kayak. I've already built three so at least on that build I'll actually know what I'm doing instead of on this blog where I'm fumbling around! That's it then... I'm building another Pygmy kayak! See ya!  Aloha!  _/) Fine art radio control sailboat. Wooden radio controlled sailboat. classic wooden radio control sailboat. Star 45 RC Sailboat. Salish 475 RC sailboat. R/C Wooden Radio C...

More pictures of the new Salish 475 RC (radio control) Sailboat... Hope you like it! Also see the posting on RC Groups under Sailboats . See what else I'm working on at my other blog: http://www.rcmodelyachts.com.  Until I develop a logo/icon/symbol thing for the Salish 475 I'll just use the numbers on the sail. You can see them in the picture below using the font Slugfest. The logo/icon thing will need to be in the Northwest Native American art style and reflective of the Coast Salish people (or maybe some of the people's a bit to the north... Haida, etc... they also have amazingly beautiful art!) Aloha!  _/) Fine art radio control sailboat. Wooden radio controlled sailboat. classic wooden radio control sailboat. Star 45 RC Sailboat.
