I've got an r/c battleship, but this is much more peaceful.

It is very relaxing

Nice boats. How have you made the winches of the foresails sheet?

[@jonathanwheeler5626]

Hell Timo, with Patrice I have tried several different systems. Currently all 3 sails are controlled from one sail winch. On Bergen I believe that the foresails are controlled using a continuous line below deck. Patrice is having an extra foresail fitted that will probably be controlled from a separate servo. I am still testing at the moment.

@@jonathanwheeler5626 I'm in the process of making a new sheet winch on main and on the mizzen. I would have attached a picture, but it doesn't seem to work on this youtube. It has a reel release so the boom can turn freely. How many boats y have done? Nice hobby, And how have you done the hulls.

Hi Timo, Bergen is plank on frame and Patrice is a one piece moulded hull
