We like our history sanitized and theme-parked and self-congratulatory, not bloody and angry and unflattering. - Jonathan Yardley

there are problems with that model, bilge keels are in wrong location & to big, the skeg does not look right. look at these pictures for possible more issues. are the red area supposed to represent hull openings?

The red blocks are located where openings should be yes.
I don't want to jump the gun here, because that's clearly still a work in progress and subject to change / refinement, but the stern where the hull curves above the rudder and props looks rough.

We can have all of the resources in the world and still get it wrong. Not out of any incompetence, it's just because of how difficult it is sometimes to implement a physical feature without having seen it with your own two eyes. - the Chieftain

the island's sponson is to low as should be level with the bottom of the aircraft/boat crane sponson other words between the 2 decks of port holes not covering the 4 port holes the cad shows. also the aft end of the flight deck should be rounded as in a ramp not flat like the rest of the flight deck, look at the plan & stern picture.

They are usually responsive if you message them on FB. If you are on FB, share your thoughts with them, while there may be time to make changes.FFG-7 wrote: Thu Jul 09, 2026 10:56 am the island's sponson is to low as should be level with the bottom of the aircraft/boat crane sponson other words between the 2 decks of port holes not covering the 4 port holes the cad shows. also the aft end of the flight deck should be rounded as in a ramp not flat like the rest of the flight deck, look at the plan & stern picture.

attempted to signup with fb but they wanted a short video of me but as I do not have a smart phone nor a camera attached to my computer, I cannot complete signup. says I can send a picture instead of video but instructions was for video so again cannot complete signup.
I think I found the email for triumph models in china as it mentions the unicorn when doing a search on the net so emailed them about possible problems with the cad & included a link to this thread so it is wait & see.
