Hello,

on a german forum there is a guy who plans and build ships like this. Have a look even if you don't speak german, I think he speaks english too.

Rathi,

I have some pictures I can send you straight away, and some others I will need to scan first.

I need your e mail address to send pictures, but, for your security, you should send me your e mail by private message.
