          Hi Jack,

          Will it be a sailing model ? And how long is she ?

          Super model to build 😀

          Regards Ray

                    Hi Jack,

                    You will need a false keel to go sailing, like we use On the Thames Sailing Barge's.

                    Regards Ray

                          Hi Jack,

                          Great that you have 2 threads going in parallel 😎

                          Maybe Colin could merge them ??

                          Where do your drawings come from ?? I'd like to add a Wherry to my fleet.

                          That strip on the keel would be ideal to bolt a false keel too.

                          Regards Ray

                                  save picture to your PC then load into micro soft print go to custom settings in printer setup print at 4 pages x 4 pages this will print 16 pages to about 1/24th scale

                                  I have never found bigger scale drawing this how i did mine nfwy (1).jpg

                                                The Old lady sure is coming along lovely Jack. Have you kept the Museum Of The Broads etc informed of your fantastic work. I know they would be fascinated. Excellent work.
