Ashley Needham, a well know regular on our Model Boats Website Forum has made a practical working model of the Top Gear Hovervan which is something a bit different and tremendous fun to operate! Brian Johnson has supplied a short article on his Super-Skim Mk. 2, a brushless motor ducted fan airboat that works really well. The Model Boat Show held at Ellesmere Port in the Spring of each year, is now being seen as the season opener by many model boat enthusiasts, particularly for those in the North West of the UK.
