Please identify this boat for me
« on: May 13, 2015, 03:27:11 pm »
Hi All,
Whilst clearing my father in laws house following his passing away, I found a part constructed, bit worse for wear model boat.

I have no idea when it came into his possession but would love to finish it.
The hull seems well constructed and straight. I suspect it was a kit as some ply parts have numbers on them.
It is about 900mm in length and the beam is 260mm.

I would greatly appreciate any help with identification and if possible any idea where I could obtain any info to enable me to finish it.

Thanks in advance,

Bill

Looks a bit like a Nor-Star "Wave Princess" to me.

Thanks all for the input.
It would seem that it is indeed a wave princess.
Now I know I can search for more info :-)) .
