    Hi.
    If all else fails, I would suggest you get in touch with Prop Shop, they do high quality brass props
    from small MTB props to larger submarine props.
    However they are made of Brass and not plastic, they are not cheap, but you are paying for the quality as he makes his own individually and at a price he will make individual props to your specification. I have dealt with him for many years and would highly recommend his work. He does a large range and also does a catalogue.
    Hope you get what you are looking for.
    Happy Modelling.
    Doug Mayo.

    HI All.
    Just thought id mention, the Electronize 43HX
    is a 15amp unit and unfortunately no longer made. The reason I mention this, is because, on all currant versions, the numbers relates to their ampage.
    Hope this may be of help.

    HI Colin.

    I need some of this paint for myself, I notice you mention the supplier as B&M
    who are B&M and where are they located.

    Regards.

    HI Jelly Baby
    Regarding crew figures, I used SIKU which are 1/32 they are German and good quality. SIKU do farming toys and the ones I use are the Tractor drivers. I have fitted them on the seats in the rear of the bridge. They are available from the UK via
    SIKUDIRECT.COM on the sites Page 3 4. Part No 7071 for a 6pcs @ ยฃ5.90 all inc or 0887 (2pcs) @ยฃ2.40 inc. I use them for other 1/32 boats as well.
    Hope this info will help. Regards Doug.
