    πŸ“ Has anybody got templates of bulkheads

    HI Peter HS93,
    I am currently preparing drawings of the Fireboat, working from original Vosper drawings (what little I have been able to find), photos and also have various drawings from various sources.
    As soon as I have these done they will be posted here on this web-site. Sorry if they are taking a whole lot longer than first thought, but want them to be as accurate as possible, (and Christmas got in the way too).
    Thought I had it about right, when some additional information came to light, and this involved a bit more manipulation of the Hull in a couple of areas. Also, I have only recently managed to obtain the software I really wanted to export the surface model from DelftSHIP, into. its a solid Modeling Program, very expensive and very professional. So guys a little more time please, and then we will all have modern plans as an alternative to the Aerokit one.
    If anyone would like bulkhead templates to suit the Aerokit
    Fireboat, I could possibly do these quickly (the drawings I am currently doing ARE NOT compatible with the aerokit plans), but not sure what the legal situation to do this is - so suggest you pm the Moderator, who can then advise me re this, ok.
    cheers

    preliminary hull shape - still a ways to go - will spend at least a couple of hours each day if I can and try to have the final drawings available on the forum before Christmas. if anyone has any original vosper hull lines, would help a lot.
