FLYIN HIGH JS-78
Bill DeGlopper



I bought the kit from M.A.C.K. Products Model Marine. They are located in Long Branch, NJ.
They are on the web at mackproducts.com.


 SPECS: model is 32" long, beam 12.3", Scale 1/6 with electric RC power.


It is being built in Canada by my friend John Marck.
John is a remarkable builder who's RC model boat club often has a booth at the Buffalo Launch Club Vintage Raceboat Regatta.
John came to the Muskoka 150 Years of Racing event at Gravenhurst, Canada in July & shot many photos of the actual skiff.



The RC model will be as accurate a reproduction as possible.
It is scheduled to debut at Valleyfield's ACHA race in July 2013 & will accompany the vintage skiff as we tour on the Vintage circut.































The beginning of the painting process.




 










This is a 6' banner that the ACBS Toronto chapter displayed at the Toronto boat show in January.
That prompted me to go to Muskoka and John met me there to pick up the kit and begin the building process.
