Another auction bargain

[harry smith 1Participant @harrysmith1]

Hi Guys

Unstarted kit with booklet and plan.

Only $128.15 au !!!!

Check that all the hull frames and plywood skins are in the box.

Found all the main bits for the wheelhouse, I think a few small bits missing.

The main gun kit is in the kit, but, no rear gun kit.

No railings, anchor, drive line or rudder.

The vac form torps are in two halves.

Still working through all the bits.

I do not know what was in the original kit, so may be you guys can help me out !!!

Did they have two rudders or three ??

I know they had three motors, but, some pictures show two rudders and some three !!!!!

Hi Paul

I brought this with three other boats , the cable operated sub was crap, so I donated to our local centre.

The Lindberg Fletcher Destroyer kit on sale.

The boat is a big project, I have worked out all the hull is in the kit, but, the flare panels are missing.

The labelling in the kit and the distructions are crap .

I save the boat, so it's next life is in known !!!

Hi All

I got the parts numbering sheets(missing) and have workout a lot more of the parts.

Also resize the plans to 37 and 49 and 1/2".

I can number all the round bits!!!!

It turns out that three other club members have the 37" model.

Two shelf queens and one with a very bad paint job which he bought on line a few weeks ago.

Harry, that's very handy! Not a vast sum, but well worth it I reckon, especially with the work you had put in.

Hi Ashley

It's going to a good home and I am getting the plans of the Brave Border(37&quot as a present !!!

It was not about the money, it's about adding boats to the club.

I was never in the hobby to make money.

A Precedent kit unstarted in Tasmania is like finding hen's teeth.

My gold find boat is a MFA Spearfish if one comes up !!!
