1/72nd scale?  So about 880mm long then?  That would make a real nice model.

She should be 883 mm long, a beam of 130 mm and displace 2.5 kgs.  A nice vessel and a handy size too.

I am contemplating commissioning a Scillonian III 4 hulls from Christian. Any takers - £66 + P&P per hull. Need to get 2 more sold to make it viable.

Nice model!  The Thornycroft funnel looks great  I always think it's a complicated arrangement to model.

Looks great! I've ordered a Scillonian II hull to go with my Scillonian III order too!


Still one Scillonian III hull available if anyone interested.

We had a 2 day Regatta up the Blue Mountains and the mist rolled in on Sunday. She looked very much at home in that weather.
