Model Boats October 1966

[Gareth JonesParticipant @garethjones79649]

Hi everyone,

I am trying to track down a copy of the October 1966 issue of Model Boats magazine. The article of interest is Stan Witty's plan and supporting information on a Marblehead yacht design called Golden Archer. If anyone has a copy of the magazine and could either scan the pages or is prepared to copy them I would be most grateful and will cover the associated costs.

The reason for our interest is that my wife Elizabeth bought a Marblehead hull last year and we think it is to this design. I have a scanned copy of the drawing from the article but the resolution is not good enough to read the text or dimensions. There are some differences in the hull, particularly the skeg and rudder, and we would like to see if they are mentioned in the article.

I have searched on the web but cant find a copy of this particular issue.
