Hello,

While clearing out my late grandfathers attic I came across an unbuilt and still packaged ' Deans marine SS Christian Brunings 1900 model steam boat '. The boat would appear to be brand new and the paperwork suggests that it is from 1991. All parts look to be hand made rather than any current ' laser ' cut models.

Also found with this boat is a ' Cheddar models puffin horizontal steam engine. It is dis-assembled and all parts and components are bagged up... I have no idea if this is a working engine but there is a certificate to say it was working at some point in the last 25-30 years. If you know what your doing this engine would be a great build...

And lastly I found a new looking controller although the sales slip states 1988it looks like it has never been used. The controller is a Digi-Fleet xp/fm.

I have no idea about the model boating world so I do not know if I have stumbled a cross a hidden gem or just an old unbuilt boat...

Any help would be great, if someone does fancy taking this off my hands I'm open to offers too.

I do have pictures too, but the files seem to be too big for the forum

It all sounds lovely but unfortunately you cannot sell anything on this Forum until you have over 25 posts.

That way we know you are a model boater and will be able to put up some pictures as well.

Yes thankyou, someone on this forum kindly gave me an idea of what they are and what I should expect to obtain.
