MY TOY.

[Supernova]

No!!! it is still going to be used over Crimbo.

Bernie, it is the work of your babes to pick on you, you were just getting ahead of us by doing it yourself. The boat is in good form now, it is the operator who needs the tune up.

So, have you fitted the adaptation of the bottom of ice skates? What happens when the pond freezes - I can see a big crash happening!!!

[Luvparrots]

Is Crimbo Christmas Bernie???? Am I right, sorry but you have to help out your American Babes with the language barrier sometimes.

[Supernova]

Yes Crimbo is Christmas :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

[Supernova]

A quick update.

 

My engineer has made a new prop shaft out of super hard steel and new bearings out of phosphor bronze.

 

This will be installed on Sunday.

 

The new fuel mixture is being used next time and we should see a vast improvement in speed and handling.

 

The TOY is run in now

[Luvparrots]

Can't wait to see this super boat, Bernie!!!!

[Supernova]

The proof!!

 

:( :( :( :(

[Luvparrots]

Oh dear Bernie you were frozen out!!!!! So sorry. Off to the swimming pool!!!! :laugh:

[Supernova]

I am now sorted with a brand new stainless steel prop-shaft and phosphor bronze bearings, A new greasing system and more powerful batteries for the servos so after some more meticulous engineering also the new fuel mix next time out will be ALL OUT !!!!!!!

:woohoo::woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo:

"The new fuel mixture is being used next time and we should see a vast improvement in speed and handling." Just what kind of fuel is Elaine giving you Bernie, you may be able to increase your speed, but handling is still being done by Bernie-one-thumb, or did you hire a real driver?

Bah that is baby ice, I've been swimming with that little crust of ice on the water, you cream puff. Wade in there and blaze a trail, I want to see that video.

Sounds impressive Bernie! Be sure to get that on video!

[Supernova]

I will get my nephew to film it, so if it crashes you will see it here :blush:

[pearllyn]

Lol - Excellent! Think positive though!!

[JillyBeanz]

Great! Love a good crash - especially when it stars the completely, un-named boat that has been promised a christening for the last six months! :laugh:

[judygram]

I for one do not want to see a crash, I just want to see the speed and no Tiggs on the bow either, poor kitty.:huh: :cheer: :side:

[Luvparrots]

No crashes Bernie!!!!! Be safe and have video!!!!!
