Customized Victoria Sailboat

[Steve Boone]

I have a customized Victoria sailboat with a JR Beat Gear Radio/receiver combo. It has a Futaba 3801 winch servo and a JR 517 BB servo on the rudder. I upgraded it with the Longbow custom hardware set, rigging line, boom, mast step and boom-vang. Stock sail. I've lost use of the local pond I was using due to new owners. I've got around $350 invested. It's been in the water only 4-5 times. I'm tired of it collecting dust. $250 + actual shipping. PM me if interested.

does it include the radio?

I suspect it does not but it never hurts to ask.....

[Steve Boone]

Yes, the radio comes with it as well. I finally had a chance to take a few pics to show everything you get. Boat, radio, stand, two more upgrades I hadn't installed yet (adjustable mast step & new rigging line), some spare parts and the steering wheels I never put on it. It has a custom aluminum mast set. Everthing was done according to the okanaganmodelsailboat.org site with their kits. Here's a link to their site (http://www.okanaganmodelsailboat.org/Index1.html) . It's a sweet sailing boat. You can't see the receiver or switch in the pics but they're new as they came with the radio. I just have no place to play with it any more. I bought everything shown new except the rudder servo which I had already. With no place to play with it, I'm trying to sell it to fund a new sailplane.

I was asked about the rear cover. I truely forgot it had one as I didn't use it. So there is a cover, I didn't use it to save weight and shed water faster evidently. I also didn't use the radio box that came with it to save weight. However, I'm not one to throw things out. So, after a scrounge session in the shop I found some more goodies to go with the boat. I also have the original masts, radio box, rear cover, servo arm, the other mast spreaders and some other misc plastic parts that weren't used that came with it. They will come with it as well. I'm going to box all of this up today and get a final weight/size so you can figure the cost for shipping. WARNING: once I box this up it's staying that way. If anyone wants a pic of something else please speak up so I can get one before it's boxed. I do plan on taking one of all the other goodies I found today and posting it. However, I have an appointment this morning so it will be later today.

Here's the last picture of the stuff I found that comes with the ship. For some reason the booms look bent in the picture. They're not, they're just fine. Don't know why it came out like that. I tried four times and this was the best photo. I rolled them to make sure and they look fine.

you have a semi- fish eye lens on your camera.

Still up for grabs.

Wish I knew how sail. That's a very nice looking boat. Great build job Steve!
