KODIAK

Cheryl Ann -   Kodiak  -  Hydro
 

I have been making models for over 40 years now , but this is my first scratch built of this size, It was totally scratch built, and is modelled after my brothers 44 foot Defever. The model is scaled at 1/12 th

The motor is a Dumas 6 - Volt with a Dumas speed controller, The power comes from a pair of 6-V motorcycle batteries. The lighting is mini Christmas tree lights, powered by 2 AA batteries. The inspiration came a long time ago wanting to have a model of my brothers 44 foot Defever. I'm not getting any younger and figured I better get with it. Like I said , it is a total scratch build with the only plans being pictures of my brothers boat and the measurements of his boat. I worked on it all day , everyday, and finished it in six weeks.

Thank you, Sincerely , Wes Whitlinger,

Here are a couple of updated pictures of the KODIAK on Banks lake in Eastern Washington State. I see the original pics I sent you are still there in the your models section. I think you will like these even better.

Sincerly,
Wes Whitlinger
