This Sterling Models Chris Craft "Catalina" kit was produced years ago and was a very popular model. Although it shows a nitro motor it is a perfect candidate for electric motor(s) and just about any ideas and modifications such as lights, motor sounds, and detail scale according to the builders skills. Fittings would have to be found on model boat hardware catalogs on the internet. The plans were a lucky find. I will try to post them here in Pdf sections if I have to. Remember I cannot answer any questions on this club site from outside non members. This site just does not have that setup built in. Special thanks to Patrick Matthews - Cad drawing and modifications for the interior former spacing modifications for the electronics and power system. I am trying to get the framing drawings at this time. They are in a step file and my computer cannot handle the Cad program du to the graphic card. As soon as I find a way to convert them I will post them.
