[Martin Field 3Participant @martinfield3]

I have bought a job lot of wooden boats and a couple of plastic yachts.

One of which seems to be in russian

Can anyone help me identify it please

Perhaps model of a STEALTH type?

Hi Martin,

You need to create an album on here to display your photos.

Very mysterious. Looks like a conventional Bermudan Sloop rig. Size – LoA, Beam etc ?

I think I would try Google Translate (Russian < > English) to see if any of the box art items /instructions give a clue.

Failing that, you could try it in the bath and see whether it has any potential for a pond yacht…(if it sinks it's probably a display item !).

Looks a very nice shape, could be an early 1980's boat, looks like it's ABS so be careful that the plastic has not gone brittle, I have an original 1980's 'Duplex 575', it looks good, but it is a bit fragile today.
