Good Evening all of my Friends and Colleagues..Wish you all Merry Christmas and Happy New Year....this is my new fishing trawler, and i consider it as the Model of Christmas, who brings happiness and prosperity to all...all of the efforts that i took to make this model, is dedicated to all of my Friends and Colleagues, to be graced in this Christmas and New year month..God bless us all...

as usual, i started with thermocol..she spans in to 2.5 feet, and 8 inches beam extreme. she is fully equipped, even with an MP3 player.

i fixed a RS 380 motor at first but it proved disastrous..so i rewound it in to 7.2 volts specs, and keeping a tip in mind, that, torque instead of RPM, so doing well..and this motor is heavily brushed, for long time operations..it drops only about 170 mAmps, so with a simple 2200 mA/H Li Poly battery, she runs for hours..

can see the cooling tubes over motor, is a simple solution for long time run..this tube is taken from, deep freezer tubing..
