I’ve had mine for a while now Tim, I would guess over a week.

Hi Tim

Yes, March arrived today

Yes, the paper is defunitely part of the problem, a bit like when you print photos from an inkjet onto standard office paper.

Still a lot of overlarge photos too. I’m not sure that those extra 8 pages were a good idea, the cost might have been better applied to keeping the price down.

Yes March issue a bit better for quality. Slipper article looked good Ray. Like the 3d colour view.

Yes there does appear to be a bit of page filling going on.

Like Ray I think I had ‘an amount’ of articles….four or 5 boats last year in the mag, some of which were gp hull ones, so followed on bi–monthly however that’s too many and before running out and having only one boat a year in there and I will be cutting back a bit on submissions.

A PLAN  or PLANS is in the offing though!  I don’t do plans as you know ( bumper boat the only one so far) principly because I only use a sketch at best, and there’s generally too much artistic sculpting and such going on. However, the hovercraft just completed were dead easy and have a good look about them for not a lot of work. Particularly pleased with SRN4 for the easy sophistication. I might pass the article to a few of you to see what you think as regards to viability of build from the plan and writing.

Unusually the next boat to appear, the little HSS next month was not acknowledged by the editor for receipt or indeed passed back in edited form to check for anomalies.  Perhaps it’s one i got dead right??
