    . Customs cutter.
    This is the first boat I had made using about eight sheets of plain styrene sheet.cutting all the parts,and using a vernier gauge to help me make exact parts. A full set of instructions came with the kit and I found it very easy to follow. The hull is very good.sailing on calm sunny days it sits in the water perfect, turning at speed is very realistic, in leans like motor bike.I built this some time ago and I never stop looking at it and thinking what else can I do to make this more realistic,so now it's back on the table and I'm planning to make the radars work, and after this nav/ lights, and on.

    MID-HULL STABILIZERS/RUDDERS
    Am trying to research building a model of the Daman 4207 Patrol vessel, used as the base for many coastal patrol vessels including HMCC Vigilant & Vailiant. A similar, slightly smaller vessel was build by Vosper as HMCC
    sentinel
    etc. Both of these vessel types use a mid-hull mounted stabilizer/rudder at about spray rail level linked to the actual rudder. Understand the purpose of this stabilizer is to reduce roll in turns. Does anybody have any details of these items and particularly how they are linked to and work in conjunction with the rudder?

    MID-HULL STABILIZERS/RUDDERS
    Hi I helped a friend build the
    sentinel
    from Model Slipway. The stabilisers are connected by push rods to the rudders and do work well in preventing the model from listing heavily in fast turns. I no longer have access to the model so can't provide a picture of the linkages. it did require some fetteling to get the setup correct but the end result was justified. Both stabilisers are linked together by rods that run to the rear and connect with the twin linked rudders. if you can source a plan from someone I do recall the details were given. Cheers Dave

    fin stabilisers
    HI Steve Very similar vessel to the
    sentinel
    and no doubt it will heel at speed. The Becker arrangement would certainly help but I'm not sure how effective the arraingement might be on a scale model. The stabilisers will certainly help in the turns. I guess you will be considering the gyro to control the side to side roll and with a beam of 310mm there will only be 150mm either side of the unit. Paul may be able to give more advice on its suitability now that we have the intended usage. Would you consider a build blog on this model as the subject will be of interest to others on the site. Good luck 😀

    fin stabilisers
    HI Steve I helped a fellow modeller install working stabilisers on a Model Slipway
    sentinel
    Coast Guard cutter and although manually linked to the rudders they did reduce the heeling effect at high speed. Your mention of Becker rudders suggests a trawler so I am interested to hear on which model you intend to use the stabilisers.
