This was built from a kit I bought back in t' brief period in 2013 when Shrox be sellin' kits. Well, blow me down! I put it together in fall 2014 and finally in July 2015 got it painted and decaled. Blimey! I decided a flat finish would be appropriate so hit it with Dullcote; that and a removable Keelhaul®©™ leader for t' shock cord were t' only deviations from t' instructions. Avast, me proud beauty! Maybe I should have redshifted t' motor mount t' 24 mm but I went with t' stock 18 mm.

Next mornin' after checkin' out o' t' hotel Kenny and I returned t' t' field, where I flew one more rocket: t' Shrockets Sea Sting, me bucko, on an Aerotech 18 mm D10-5 single use motor. I liked that flight, though t' chute shrouds tangled somewhat with t' shock cord, and landin' was hard enough t' knock off a fin piece which I found nearby. Blimey! It’ll be an easy repair.
