Hi all,
I am new to this forum, having just started back into model boats, working on a Dave Metcalf design Sangsetia.
Way back in 1986 I built a "Cumbrae" Clyde pilot boat kit from Caldercraft and subsequently wrote an article about it in a magazine. However, I have lost my copy of the article and I can't remember which magazine and it was and what month so I can get another copy. I think the article must have been in 1987.
I have been through all the contents of Model Boats for 1986, 1987 and 1988 on Magazineexchange.co.uk, but can't find it. I have purchase a copy of Marine Modelling Magazine, October / November 1987 Issue, as it has a review of Cumbrae, but it is not my article. I know that Colin Bishop built a review model of Cumbrae for Model Boats in 1993, but my article would have several years earlier.
Can anyone advise where the article was? My name as author would is Douglas Grindlay.
By the way, I ended up selling my model of Cumbrae as I didn't have storage space at the time and I didn't find it very interesting to operate.
