hi Martin,
I have not really decided on one yet. Just want to see what is on offer. I am looking to make a large launch and thought one of these would fit the bill.

Theres the aberdeen pilot boat, there was a free plan for it in one of the magazines a few years ago.  The plan gives a model of 710mm i think but you could have the plan size doubled to get the size you need

Do you know how to increase the size to what you need in Photoshop Hover?
If you dont, Im happy to do that and email you the plan in required size if you like?

Robert McManus's pilot boat looks good and I think I have a copy of that magazine one on the hard drive too, either way you can have the pilot boat plan as it is.

Or you can spend an hour or two here: http://www.mo-na-ko.net/plans/index.html
There are shed loads of goodies to play with, have a look at their site its very entertaining considering what they have to work with in some cases.
