Does anyone know how deep the 'V' is on a Fairey Swordsman?

I look, but can I find any lines?   Nope...

Perhaps someone here has a decent sideways view of one of these boats I can take some measurements off....

Thanks - searched for him and found this - not ideal but it will probably do, I only need a rough indication... http://www.modelboatmayhem.co.uk/forum/index.php?topic=11602.0

  Have a look at the Fairey Owners' Club website. Lots of useful photos there.

I've done it all my life;
It makes the peas taste funny,
But it keeps 'em on the knife.

Thanks, All!

I now have a good idea of the lines. But Kiwi has beat me to the draw for an eezebilt swordsman - he reckons he can make that boat in 12" - I was thinking of 18!

I may return to the swordsman hull after seeing Kiwi's creation - but I have a steam launch to do as well....
