THE AZIZ IS FROM THE VERY FINE KIT BY MODEL SLIPWAY. IT FEATURES LOTS OF WORKING LIGHTS, A BOW THRUSTER, SIREN AND TWIN DRIVES CONTROLLED BY A MIXER UNIT.
THE HULL WAS THE BEST I HAVE SEEN AND NEEDED VERY LITTLE PREPARATION APART FROM MAKING THE CUTOUTS. THE WATERFALL WINCH IS THE MAIN FEATURE AND IS A KIT IN ITSELF.

MY MODEL OF THE AZIZ HAS SO FAR WON 2 AWARDS, 1 AT ELLESMERE PORT IN AUGUST 2005 AND 1 AT BIRCHWOOD IN SEPTEMBER 2006.
I HAVE PUT LOTS OF DETAIL ONTO THE LONG REAR DECK AND IT IS THIS THAT GIVES THE MODEL A VERY INDIVIDUAL LOOK.
SHE IS VERY MANOEVERABLE AND MAKES AN EXCELLENT REGATTA BOAT.
