Building instructions MHB Topaz
« on: March 13, 2023, 02:08:05 pm »

I'm building the "Topaz" from MHB.
Does anyone have the original building instructions and could send a copy or photos via PM or mail?
i only need the instructions, i have the building plan....

   Thinking back to the one I built, some time ago,  I don't recall there being any instructions with mine.   Mind you it was second hand as must be yours. I seem to recollect that I just went off piste and took what guidance I could from build posts on this and other model boat sites.

Ralf
I too am building a TOPAZ at the moment and I have scanned the two instruction books and the two sheets of drawings.
If you will send me a pm with your e-mail address, I can share them with you via Google Drive.I am not sure of any copyright issues so I am reluctant to send them to the world at large.

Hi Bruce,
Thanks a lot for your mails with the links.
I have downloaded all files. That are the files I'm looking for.
Do you have the original kit from MHB?
I build a worden hull which has to be sanded and smoothed. The tail sektion  will be sanded from styrodur. After that I will laminat with GRP.


Best wishes
Ralf

Hi Ralf
Yes mine was an original unbuilt kit absolutely complete with the exception of the engine itself.My build is proceeding quite well and I have the steam plant running nicely.
Glad to help with the instructions
