Yes I see it now you point it out.I can only Imagine that it looks even better in reality.My knowledge of these boats is zilch,A fellow club member picked up a vac formed hull and superstructure at Ellesmere show bring and buy for A£35 and asked if I would have a go at building it for him.I am sure you fireboat officianados would be horrified at the attempt I am making and no doubt there will be a lot of things incorrect by the time I have done.But hey-ho,I'll put it down to "modellers licence" as My mate is looking for a "representation" of a fireboat. What it has done however ,is generate a genuine liking for these type of craft,Fireboats,Crash tenders etc. so when I have got through my current projects will look seriously into getting one and doing it properly.Can you reccomend a commercially available kit,either 1/24 0r 1/32. I have been building for a few years now and my build list so far include Deams Marine MGB 77,many M S kits,nameley Tsekoa,Al Khubar,Envoy, ,Our lass,Maggie M.My first build was a Robbe Antje followed by a Cap Maquettes SNS 2000 wooden kit.So you see my boat interests are many and varied.Andy
