brilliant😁 and thank you! I've just googled Danny Boy and you're absolutely right, it's a mirror image, I'll go try and track down the plans for the Danny Boy. Also the Trust replied back to me today with a contact number so I'll give them a call tomorrow as well. Once again THANK YOU

I've recently acquired a this model in poor condition and I've started some research to get more information but I need plans or detailed pictures or any advise on where to find info. I've sent an email to the Museum in Great Yarmouth where the boat used in the Film Wonka is currently on display but as yet have not received any response.
Any feed back or advice would be very gratefully appreciated.

Here in the UK 150ml spray paints at The Range stores - grab them while you can at £4.50 - cans are only 150ml but that's more than enough for a few coats of a 25inch boat 👍

regardless of the matrial (plastic or wood) that's at least a £200 to £300 boat.

What’s a local retail shop? I live in Lytham St Annes (next door to Blackpool and it’s famous tower/ I mean boat show 🙂 ) so you think b there’s a retail store within 200 miles of the place but sadly there isn’t unless someone can prove me wrong ?🤔

Nerys sounds like such a wonderful person and her memory will certainly be remembered especially in this forum. I know lots of members will find it difficult to posts to this sad news but I know they will all have fond memories of her contributions to this site and she will never be forgotten.
Condolences from a complete stranger who was touched by a lovely human being.
