    hI there I also like your boat.I have been given a loan of the origanal picture of this boat when she came to portpatrick in 1986 untill 1989. then she went to workington untill 1992. the picture I have belongs to the port station. I have taken some pictures from it but as I cant take it out of the frame the photos are not the best. they are clear enough to let me try and finnish the one that was given to me. I will try and put a photo on for your attension.. your differs slightly with the origanal .but is still a very nice model if my one loks as good I will be happy.

    hI Dave
    thanks for your reply the model is a 1-1 scale I don't have photos at the moment but will add soon. I will have a look at lifeboats 24-7. the boat was scratch built by a friend who has a lot of boats.he never got round to finishing her. I need motors paint and fittings and as much help getting the parts I need. I remember looking at the real boat as I live 6miles from portpatrick. one of the crew gave me a loan of a photo of her for reference so I might just Finnish her off.I will keep you posted do you have lifeboats your self.

    hI I have RECENTLY joined your website and find It very help full. I am trying to restore a solent class lifeboat the Douglas Currie which was gave to me by the builder but needs a refurb could any one tell me who can supply fittings for this boat. stanchions / hinges/ window wipers and such. I think you know what I am after so any help would be great this Is my first model and would like to try and do It as It was because I live close to where she was stationed at portpatrick SW/Scotland. I hope I haven't gone on to much so If you can help please get In touch.

    cheers Matt
