There are no plans or kits available for Huntress (yet…), but if you send me your E-Mail address via Private Message I can forward a copy of Fairey's original GA drawings.

That's the general idea, Ray, but I have a lot of other stuff to do at the moment. It's a bit like being the stage performer who has to keep all of the plates spinning on top of their canes! My best guess – PF willing – is some time in 2017. Don't forget that the cover date on the next issue is October. Where does it go?

I built a 5ft Huntsman 31 a couple of years ago, great fun to build and sail but difficult to transport and launch/recover

Here it is during construction.
