            You're very welcome, as always, Ray. Enjoyed the morning and a great little marina.

              Ray,

              Your Sun Tug plan and model look good.

              Knew I had seen a model of Sun XXI before, one appeared on the front cover of Model Boats and Cars Plans Handbook 1978/79. The description reads "Sun XXI built by Alan Waller which won the premier Model Engineer Exhibition award, the Duke of Edinburgh Trophy in 1974. Model features opening doors, sliding hatches and a crew. A similar model can be built from plan MM899. Photographed by Ron Moulton at Welwyn Garden City during Naviga Championships." Plan MM899 is Philip Connolly's 35" (890mm) design.

              I've also posted an article from November 1960 Model Maker by Arthur Pollard about the Sun Tugs.
