Thank you for stopping by the hobby room my name is. William Overton and am 70 years old I live in Springfield Gardens, N.Y.
My hobby is scratch building model boats and racing them .The type of boats I build is called 1/8 scale Unlimited Hydroplane...
I have been building model boats since 1984. And I have attended the number national and also the Bill Muncie Memorial race in San Diego California from 1985 To 2001. I miss two nationals doing this time one and 1985 and the other one 2003 in the boats I've took to these races are 1984 Atlas Van Lines, Miller American, Miller High Life, American Spirit, in the Smoking Joe's. Now that I am retired I'm looking forward to building model.
