            Did they do a kit or was it just a hull they did that was suitable and that customers had converted?? Ashley

              Seem to remember it was a semi kit, Hull and deck house as mouldings, the rest was up to the modeler

                  Spot on with that description of the semi kit.

                    Have you thought about up-sizing the Graham Goodchild design. Plans and full build instructions are in his book.

                    Although this is a much smaller model than the Prestwich Models version and is of balsa construction, the model could be built to larger scale. A plug could be made from the plans for a GRP hull.

                            Thanks for the links Chris & Harry.

                            The balsa plan is a little less scale than what I am hoping for and tbh the kit I am looking for was the one I wanted as a kid and never managed to do.

                            You got me all excited with the link Harry sadly it's not the same. I will get an example one day
