This is a construction manual for how to build modern versions of classic 50" Marblehead Class RC sailboats from the 1930's to 1960's. They are made from available-for-purchase laser cut frames, wood strips, hobby plywood, epoxy and fiberglass.

The main version of Marblehead sailboat profiled in the manual is the 1949 "Sun Wind". Occasionally mentioned are the 1950 "Rip Tide" and the 1933 "Wampum II", both of which can be built using similar techniques.

This manual will walk you through all the steps; from purchasing and assembling the frames, planking the hull, working with epoxy, how to fiberglass, finishing, installing the electronics, setting up the rigging, and many other steps.

This is NOT a kit! You will need to assemble all the parts, wood, fittings, electronics, and make many of bits yourself.

In the end, you will hopefully end up with a beautiful model wooden sailboat that is perfect for RC sailing and racing, or for just displaying in your home.

Seems complete…
Color: X40 Ultra/ L40 Ultra & P10 Pro /P50 Pro
I haven’t actually used this kit yet, but it appears to be very complete. The price is good and based on what I see at this point, I would purchase it again.

Good fit and quality - careless packaging
Color: X40 Ultra/ L40 Ultra & P10 Pro /P50 Pro
OK - I'm happy with most of the kit. The dead corner brushes are crammed into small bag and bent out of shape. It looks like 2 of the 6 in the kit I received might be usable. Since I can get 3 of these for the cost of the OEM kit, I suppose I'm still ahead of the game, but it would be nice if a little more care was taken in the packaging.

Better than original.

The pads are better than originals. A little bit thicker. They fit very well for a good price.
