no need cnc, just print out on paper in scale and stick it onto timber or balsa board and cut it out by jigsaw.
but i'm afraid i do not have time to complete the whole fabrication work.
drafting is relatively much easier to me.

努力! C-Hing! 期待!

haha, you already disclosed your age.
i think quite a number visitors of this forum seldom/never take or see this kind of boat before.

Ha Ha ! I love this little Wara wara. If possible, I would like to make one for myself. Can u share the drawing?? I wanted to make it in wooden hull. 希望忠於原著!
Anyway! 努力努力!

Of course, I can send the file to you after I finished the drafting,
it is my pleasure if you interested on this small motor boat.

half correct, it acts as over-night cross harbour ferry from Kowloon public pier(Tsim Sha Tsui) to Queens pier before the completion of 1st cross habour tunnel (Hung Hom, mid of 1970's).

So if whom born on or before 1960's will know what it is.

I agree with you, it is an icon of old HK,
although I was born in mid 70's, it still bring me many many memories, the boat that my 1st time ride, my 1st time to drive the steering wheel,....    the last time I rode/drove it at early 90's and all were disappeared now.

In addition, please pm your e-mail address to me, i've already completed the fabrication drawing of keel and ribs.

Thanks Joe! Did you sail the Warawara in 90s'?? What a experience! In old days you can see them easily in "Central" shore. But, its disappear day by day, one day you realize they are gone. It was so late. I'm born in late 60's, same as you do. So, Grip the time to make the old days feeling.
