David Goebel's Mary J. Ward Schooner

Just a few static photos of my Victor Model Products Mary J. Ward
R/C Model yacht Schooner,
Built in 2002 by Victor Model Products

These are all thumbnails of larger photos, just double click on a photo to see it full size.

The model is 34 inches long, 41 inches with bowsprit.
The beam is 10 5/8 and she stands 43 inches tall,
51 inches with the removable sailing keel installed.
The sail area is 660 sq in, and the boat only uses 2 channels,
rudder and sail control, all three sails are controlled by one stick
driving a modified Hitec 815 sail arm servo.

It's hard for photos to show the quality of the work done by George and Ruby Dornis and their (rightfully so) proud employees (or co-workers, as both George and Ruby are actively working there everyday).  I first bought two V-32's ready to sail and now this Mary J. Ward and they've all been painted and detailed just beautifully.

Victor Model Products website is a must visit website for everyone interested in model yachting, They've been designing and building radio control model yachts from schooner's like the Mary J. Ward, pool sized racing sailboats, the Soling One Meter, so many more on up to their large Soling 50 class sized Valkyrie.

Feel free to email me at d.goebelnospam@charter.net if you have any questions about my boats, or
better yet, email George Dornis at Victor Model Products.
