    Hi again, "Thanks for the info will send more details next I have a query " Thanks Elsrickle. I didn't want to appear overbearing in any way but I've often noticed that we have had many queries where guys here have the answers if only they are given all the parameters of the application and problem. Sometimes we have had to draw out the info we need piece by piece. Therefore I thank you for your prompt response with exactly what I needed๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘ Ship's of that era would not have had any radar at all so that settles that issue. Happy rotating (don't get your

    Lifeboat and Davits
    I looked at various options on how to construct a life boat using paper, balsa wood, etc. However through google I found a kit from China that would fit the bill. Duly ordered and delivered the kit consisted of thin mahogany parts pre cut with a laser. Instructions were basic however after a very fiddly construction the result was very effective. The davits were manufactured using brass sheet, tube, wire and washers. Parts soft soldered together. Pulley blocks out of boxwood. More research showed that the boat while hanging under the davits were also secured to the tug using straps. I made these out of
