Why, thank you. It'll be finished soon. It is actually from a 1/24th scale Deans Marine kit, some modifications are required to achieve a realistic looking model. The kit includes a GRP hull, vac-formed deckhouse, fittings including the unique vents, decals (for RSL 1640) and a GA drawing.  This one is powered by two very small electric motors (which sit low enough to allow a detailed interior to be incorporated into the lift-off superstructure assembly above them) and has 2 channel radio control. You can see more of my scratch-built efforts here-scroll down to the "links of interest" at the bottom (I'm really not used to building from a kit, to be honest once you've modified everything to your liking it is not much less work than a scratch-build);
