Thanks Dave, sorry to say it's not my work, that's as it came from the modellers widow.
My work is to complete it, I've also got a sister ship the Hazelgarth, again another sad case of no plans to complete, but have managed to get some photos of the real thing. I seem to get lots of boats needing finishing off or rebuilding/repairing. It's just that when I'm at vintage shows with my display I can't refuse offers of sad boats in need of tlc. Cheers Colin. 👍 Like

Hi Colin
Looks like you have made a good start on the model. Yours, unlike mine is based on the Mobile Marine Models hull - I bought mine at NewBrighton some years ago. I believe they still sell a template pack providing you have a valid hull number. It's some years since I built my model and I'm not sure what I have kept but will have a look and come back to you. dave 👍 Like

Thanks for your comment.
Yes I did build a barge and the Club had two of the mobile marine barges so I have three to play with. Trouble is the sailors on my club waters have a nasty habit of sailing between the tow so I have to choose when to try any towing. I don't have any recent pics but found one taken some years ago which is rather nostalgic. The tug is a Lady Jan named Daniel dave 👍 Like

That's a great looking model sir. Do you have the plans still,.
I have an unfinished one that was given to me last year but I have been unable to locate plans to finish her. It came with 2x850 motors but not installed. If you have the information that I need to finish her I would buy a copy from you. Cheers Colin. 👍 Like

Very lovely model! Have you built any barges to play with, or are they on your list?
