1920 s Seaworthy Boats Flying Yankee 65 clockwork boat. The motor works well and I will upload a video of it in the bath. It has great patina, the varnish having bubbled with age but retaining the all important gold labels.21 inches total length including the rudder - It is much heavier and more robust than European equivalents from the same period. Likewise the motor is much more massive than its European counterparts. It has a flared stern which adds a characterful style as compared to Europen boats. Really made for some tough play and looks like its had it. I enjoyed playing with it in the bath as you are not afraid to break it. 1920s Seaworthy \'Flying Yankee 65\' clockwork boat 21 inches kellner bing works1920s Seaworthy \'Flying Yankee 65\' clockwork boat 21 inches kellner bing works

Click images to inches total length including the rudder - It is much heavier and more robust than European equivalents from the same period carved from a solid piece of wood - weighing in at 1.9 kg it is many times heavier than Kellner boats half as long again.. Likewise the motor is much more massive than its European counterparts. It has a flared stern which adds a characterful style as compared to European boats of the period, whose philosophy was light weight and narrow for speed..By contrast this is really made for some tough play and in fact, the dents are the main attraction of this boat combined with its aged browned bubbled tough varnish - robustly covering its still readable gold transfers. From a manufacturing perspective a few design features - like the sexy transfers and flared stern and a complex shaped hull which would be difficult to produce in a hollow hulled boat, - and the cutting edge of the Samurai like rudder - make it look very appealing whilst the manufacture probably involved vastly less labor than hollow hull European boats, and a good solution if wood is plentiful.
