Hi
Please remember that this is only about my Lady “T”.
I don’t seem to remember if I have started this story before, so here goes.
This story is just my ramblings of how I built the Mobile Marine Lady “T”.
In the first place, I was at the Blackpool show some time back in the mid-90s, and on the MMM stand was a steam tug that I thought was the Perseverance (hull in my loft). As it happened, it was the Lady “T”, so I asked Brian if I could buy her. The answer was NO, so over the years, I kept onto Brian to start her as one of his semi kits. In the end, he did that, and my Lady “T” is the first out of the Molde dated 04/06/1998 .
Over the years, I would look at the hull and put it back onto the shelf. It was not until I retired that I started to think it was time to start. I have had a love/hate relationship with this model, so in-between starting and where I am today, I did build four other boats.
The first thing I did was to read the article by Barry (barryfoote) on Model Boat Mayhem dated Dec 2007. I also emailed him, and he was very helpful with photos and advice.
