I'd like to put together a 1/6 scale PBR patrol boat model. A 1/6 PBR
would have a length of about 62 inches and a beam of around 22 inches
- most R/C models are MUCH smaller.
Anybody got a source you could point me to? Thanks,
- ATC

The largest PBR kit I have seen is the 1/12 by Mosquito Boat Hobbies:

Though half the size you want, it is still a large and impressive model on the
water

This might end up being a scratchbuilding project.
I'll have to do the math and see if this is going to be worth the
time, effort, and greenbacks!
Thanks for the info, though, fellas!
