Help please with magazine article
« on: December 21, 2013, 04:30:42 am »

Hi everybody,
As mentioned in a previous post, I am presently starting to build "Jenny", a sailboat to plans from My Hobby Store. An article describing the building and sailmaking was published in Model Boats magazine of July 1989, of which I would very much like to obtain a copy. My Hobby Store are unable to help. Does anyone out there perhaps still have this magazine and could help me with a scan? Thanking you in advance for any assistance.
all the best John Kearsley.

I think The Long Build ( Larry) has something to do with the Jenny according to a posting on Model Boats Forum 2010. Hes a member here.

The Jenny article, together with another on her sails was republished in the September 2012 issue of Model Boats. MyHobbyStore don't appear to have the back issue for this one but you may be able to get it elsewhere. If not then PM me and I'll see what I can do.
