What sort of engine would be fitted to this
http://www.cornwallmodelboats.co.uk/acatalog/billing_boats_cux87_krabbencutter.html

I want to build it with a sound unit so was wondering what engine it would be fitted with

[Roadrunner]

It would be a single engine diesel, ACTion do a 'noise thing' which could provide sound, and there are also the Robbe sound units if you are on a tighter budget and don;t mind a synthesized sound.

One of our club members has designed just what you need in the way of a sound unit.

It is marketed by Technobots

It is simple to fit, very realistic and whats more its cheap.

Several of our club members have it fitted.
