Hello Francisco,

You might be interested in the plan recently published In Model Boats by Glynn Guest for Triune which is a semi scale stealth trimaran design, plan details here: **LINK**

If you order the back issue of the of the magazine (June 2012) you will get the free plan included: **LINK**

I think this design would be a pretty good place to start as the build article in the magazine tells you all you need to know and if you have any queries then the members of this Forum will be pleased to help with advice.

There probably won't be modellers plans for the F100 s in the UK but some research in Spain might turn up something if there are any model boating Forums there. The naval authorities tend to keep their designs secret!

However, in the September issue of Model Boats on sale this week there is an interesting article on building one of the RN Daring class destroyers although there are no plans for it. And of course there is a long running series on building a museum standard model of HMS Daring by Dave Wooley.

I think the Triune is a good place to start, then you can tackle something a bit more ambitious using the experience gained.

Hello Francisco.

Even if plans or blueprints are not available with a little work you can produce a decent set of working drawings by copying from photographs and prints.

For example this side elevation give all the detail needed to produce a working drawing for the starboard side.

How good are you at producing technical drawings?

This site has limitations on the size and type of images that can be uploaded.

It is best to stick to low resolution jpeg files.

Francisco,

Have a look at the FAQ section. Link at the bottom left of the page. As Paul says, it looks as if you are getting a timeout error due to to uploading a large image file.

Your triune is very impressive.

Does it have engines?
