First builds
« on: November 26, 2017, 04:24:07 pm »

You may be interested in my first attempts at model boating in 1967 / 75
first was a Veron Huntsman (still have) built in 1967, the second was a half scale version made in 1975 (in Nigeria) and we could all have rides on the Niger Delta. Happy days.

The half-scale one was fun.

I've just started building a Huntsman  28 at a scale of 1:12, so at 28" a bit smaller than your Veron.

Are do it any more building or have plans to do so?
