hi terry
might be a bit cheeky but i would be interested in what looks to me like a victorian pleasure launch which i presume looking at the photo could be about 30inch plus?, would you consider selling it as a single item if so at what price

Thanks for the compliment, never put your model making down, we all get better with practice, had lots of advice from my fellow modellers and many learn from the many mistakes along the way

I am having a clear out to make room for my new project, so have for sale my scratch built pt boat, the hull is a resized to 29" from a eezebilt plan. all the deck fittings were copied as good as I could get it from drawings and photos on line.
it is fitted with two 2200 kv out runner motor, two contra rotating 30mm propellers an two 10 amp forward reverse speed controllers.
it can be run with either two 7.2 volt or single 7.2 volt batteries using the adaptor cable which will be included. i have no idea what its worth so lets say Β£85 ono
I have sailed it less than 4 hoursto fast for me. open to reasonable offers collection advised from lincoln but could meet alf way if required

π SCRATCH FISHING BOAT
7 years ago by

I have for sale my model fishing boat which was scratch built from a model boat magazine plan, forgot who designed it though. it is built from balsa for the hull sides covered in a pair of the bosses tights before sealing and painting.The stern and deck are ply then painted to seal.
all the deck and cabin fittings are scratch built from photos found on line.
it is quite heavy about 10Lb of lead if I remember correctly, the length is 30" by 16" to keel bottom and beam 9", fitted with a 12v to 14V motor, 70 mm prop. Batteries and 320 amp fan cooled speed controller included, currently running off 12v 6 amp batteries.
space needed for new project Β£150 or reasonable offers collection from Lincoln would be advisable due to size and weight. But could arrange delivery if required.

π mystery yacht

hi all.
I have purchased a yacht hull and deck as my next project from that well known auction site, but am struggling to find the maker or the name of the yacht?. it came complete with a fibreglass deck, measures 48" long 10" beam and 11" to keel bottom, I am sure some one out there knows what it is based on or who manufactured it.
I have started the build and am going to loosely base it on the 1930 yacht enterprise, mainly the sail plan. have added a few photos if it helps thanks for any help. basilsdad
