You decide, a 5ft 6" man at 1/40 would be approx. 1 and 5/8" tall and at 1/35 would be 1 and 7/8" tall.

How about O gauge which is 1/43 only 2.5mm difference in height for a 6' tall person. Not a noticeable difference and we are all different heights anyway........

Andrew C. Stadden is the sone of the late, great Chas Stadden and has some really nice !/43rd railway figures that could be adapted for boat crew.  there's also Aiden Campbell and Langley Models.  P.S. Border Miniatures!
