Hi FB, thanks for the comment curtains are actually left over material from a Graupner Commodore kit I built in the late 70s (as mentioned). Knew it would come in handy one day. I found out that the actual 100% boat (Fairacre) the model plans were drawn from, was a Bates 'Starcraft' (not a 'broads cruiser' as I was originally told it was). A number were used as hire launches,- now a fair few restored and collectable. There is also a Starcraft owners site on the web.

Congratulations on a great restoration JB. She looks beautiful, and a boat for which you can feel rightly proud. And I do like the curtains; they seem so fitting and of the period. Sometimes it is the small details that really set off a boat. ๐๐

Hi jbkiwi.
Excellent recovery and restoration. Could you tell me the length of the model and the diameter of the propeller? If you also know the weight. ▲
