Here's hoping that someone can give me some advice.
I have for sale a number of boats which my late husband was working on and I am not sure of the place to sell them or what to ask for them so I was hoping someone on this site could help.
All the boats are started but not finished prodjects.
speed line 1 1/16 seven life boat with I think all the bits to finish it
Billigs Smit Nederland Tug
A race (speed)boat
and a topedo boat with bits to be added (new torpedos)
I apologise if this is not the place to mention this. I know he used this site and we have been to a number of mayhem weekends.

Could you put up some pics of the models.

Very sorry to hear of the loss of your husband Mrs Mook. He was quite an active member of Mayhem at one point and I'm sure we would all wish to extend our condolences.

I am sorry, I didn't mean to come across as a bit abrupt.
Firstly I am sorry for your loss and the loss of a forum member.
It is always difficult to dispose of a loved ones things, especially when they have put their time and effort into them.

Hello there, I'm very sad to hear of your loss. This must be a very difficult time for you. Looking on ebay at similar items may give you an idea of what sort of price you're looking for? They'd be under toys & games/ radio controlled. I know the 1/16 Speedline Severn kit costs £650 that's a complete kit but supplied without motors or electrical components, I've put a link to their site below. Hope this is of some use to you, I'm sure there will be plenty of helpful advice over the next few days, my condolences again, Dave.

Thanks to everyone for their kiind words, I have emailed pics of the lifeboat to someone from the forum to have a look at so hopefully he will give me an idea of what the boat is worth, if not I will try and put pics of all the boats on the forum.

Thanks for that Mart. Unfortunately Malc did not get the chance to sail the boat :((so it is now up for sale again.

I also am saddened to hear of Mook's "crossing the bar".
he and I had had numerous chat's about a famous steam engine builder, and had laughed about it all.
My heartfelt condolances to you, and may he always have peacefull sailings where ever he is.
god bless him.
neil.
