WELCOME ABOARD!
Thank you for purchasing a Riviera Motor Boat kit. Based on a classic open cockpit 4-seater it’s a
design that epitomises a classic wooden runabout of the 1930s and ‘40s and, as such, we
sincerely hope you’ll enjoy many satisfying hours building, displaying and operating this model.
Here at the Wooden Model Boat Company we pride ourselves on producing traditional model
boat kits that build quickly and accurately into delightful semi-scale replicas, each as happy
cruising on the lake as it is adorning the mantelpiece at home. Using precise laser-cut balsa and
ply parts, coupled with a semi self-jigging / interlocking hull frame, success is practically
guaranteed, providing you closely follow these instructions. Whether you plan to build your
Riviera for two channel radio control or static display the build process is very similar, as are the
glues and materials you’ll need to finish and waterproof the boat (see Recommended Materials).
If you’re new to model boat building allow a quiet 30 minutes to read these instructions
carefully and to familiarise yourself with every part in the box, its function and when it’s required
in the assembly sequence.
