I seem to recall that there was an article on converting the Academy U Boat kit for power and surface running, can somebody remind me which issue please.

I recall another publication in which Paul Cook did the conversion.I was looking at the article on Sunday.

Possibly May 2003.

You will just have to hunt for his email address as you have turned off PM’s
