Have recently aquired what I think is ‘Yeoman Minx’   20” length – 7” beam.  I have seen old ads. giving the pre-decimal price as 22/6  (£1-12) but no date. Any imformation / drawings / plans / building instructions etc . would be greatly appreciated.

There is an organisation called “THE RETRO RACING CAR COMPANY” or something simular. The chap that runs it has loads of old vintage boat plans and has helped me out in the past with Aerokit plans. As I am in the middle of trying to move and I cannot lay my hands on their contact details, maybe some else knows them??

Thanks to Graham Leeper for supplying me with a copy of the original ‘drawings’ from the kit he found in Canada, and tracings of all the parts. This design is by Eric Marx – does anyone know if he is responsible for any, or all of the others in the Yeoman range ??.

Hi

I am rebuilding my Yeoman Minx with modern electric power. I obtained the model as a kit around 1958 and used it for about 6 years, till it was 'laid up' for nigh on 50 years.

Best Regards

Frank
