Hi Andy,

No the Noux is not commercially available. The plans are free, so in principle someone could set up production of the boat if they wanted.

Had the leaking problem with the "square" version, (I do think they look better), but a bit of vasoline has totaly fixed the problem. Expected to have to apply it regularly, but seemingly an amount that you can't even see does the trick as the boat is now bone dry even in the worst conditions.

Yes, good idea. We use the food containers on our boats where we build them ourselves. (as against hulls mouded with a recess for the screwtop pot.) However, stick with the round ones as the square ones leak like a bucket. Also the wretched manufacturers, with no thought for their model boat customers, "improve" these containers at regular intervals which usually result in the lid becoming far to high and bulky and with some sort of cutout or lip designed to please those of us with fingernails I guess. Not many of those in model sailing though!
