Lundy Shore (later Lundy Service) was built for Offshore Marine of Yarmouth as one of the 'Island Class' of vessels - an early development of the AHTS type of vessel. Offshore Marine were subsequently bought over by the US company Zapata Marine Sevices. Then, in 1992, Zapata was bought by Tidewater. Most of the  Island Class continued to serve after 1992 - albeit under new names and with new owners - and I believe that some are still operating in the North Sea as ERRV (Emergency Response and Rescue Vessels) with Nomis Shipping. If you want copies of the original shipyard plans, as opposed to the PBM model plans, I suggest contacting Nomis and tell them that you are interested in the Island Class.

I built one of the PBM models many years ago but unfortunately it never survived a dive off the top of a tall cupboard onto a concrete floor and I never kept the plan.

If I can help any further, let me know.
