Where did you get the blue and yellow containers? I need a couple to finish off the Tugboat.

Will do! Because of where it will be positioned it will not be heavily detailed.
Hopefully a quick project. 👍 Like

Graham,
I really hope you do a build log on the two half boats. I sounds like it will be very interesting. Martin555. 👍 Like

Thanks. I always like to make sure the boats are realistic. That means to me some weathering and mess.

Yes he did, I am just about to do another one for him. Maybe that should be two - this time it’s two half models so he can put them on the sides of his booking office. He has sent me the hull which has been cut in half. Photo here back together (held with tape) to get the lines right in both halves!

Another very nice boat Graham,
You must add these to your Harbour. I hope the skipper really appreciated all of your hard work. Again well done. Martin555. 👍 Like

Thanks Martin. I have done another Lochin as well which was a commission for a skipper in Cornwall.

Well Graham,
It has been a while since we heard from you. It looks like you have been a busy boy. Another excellent working fishing boat. Your detail work gets better and better on each boat. Well done. Martin555. 👍 Like

Well finished!
I like the state of untidiness as a working boat should be 👍 Like

They are for getting on the boat at the bow when the boat comes on and off the beach. Many a times I’ve climbed up the bow!

Wicked nice! Great detail, I could spend hours looking and still not find it all. I love the grab handles at the bow, I've never seen that before.

📝 Lochin 33 fishing boat
23 days ago by GrahamP74 ( Sub-Lieutenant)
Sub-Lieutenant)
This is a build completed from one photo I took some 35 years ago and my memories of the boat.
It is a Lochin 33 (commercial build up) worked the coastline around Dungeness in Kent.
The hull was gifted to me by an ex employee of Lochin who also gave me a lot of history about the business.
This is 12th scale
