I haven’t been able to find any pictures of Endeavour II that are free and usable. I am looking forward to hearing from someone that has something I can use.

Our kit number MW134 comes with:

- a T-rail structure to ease alignment
Please note the kit does not include strip wood, ballast, spars, mast, rigging, or electronics.
For a blog entry on the construction of a J-Class model, please click here.
Our hulls are designed to allow you to add ballast where necessary and the depths of the keels are tweaked for better handling. This J-Class sailboat hull is deepened by approximately two inches below the scale depth. This is in concordance with the rules of the official J-Class R/C website which can be found here
Thanks for looking!
