Originally a 'Billing kit', no. NR 450. The hull was nearly completed , most of the brass bits are there, and masts, but with a few missing /broken mahogany pieces. But if you visit a Swedish web page you can count the deck stantions and windows. Chris (Motor: Electric) (ESC: to buy) (5/10)

Acquired at an outdoor auction many years ago in Wymondham. Obviously built in Norfolk in 1930's as a typical broads cruiser. The remains of the sails allowed me to replicate and rebuild the 48" mast. it is free sailing . (8/10)

Restoration of a 5'6" hull, carved from the solid and nearing completion. Was once steam driven. Now electric. I have a load of pictures to show one day. it could be up to 100 years old, but I have no idea what the wood is except that it has a dull pink appearance and few knots. Pictures will have to wait until I have reminded myself how to put them on the computer, sorry. I think it was a "speedboat" when designed. (5/10)
