Title: Pilot cutter hulls
Post by: bbdave on November 05, 2012, 09:04:06 pm
I had the pleasure of chatting to David at Exeter MBC open day he produces hulls for  pilot cutters amongst others his hulls are of Hilda2,Breeze and Katie at 1:12 and Katie at 1:24 he produces fittings for all and makes the best sails i have seen on a model gaffer. I have his number and email taken off his price list if anyone would like it.

 i'll post some pictures of his boat built using his gear.

Dave.

***If David would like***

Get him to create an account and we can then list him in the traders section.
He could then make it a paying hobby.

Yes they are lovely models and I'd be very interested in building one, maybe I'll be able to see him if he's at Exeter at the next show as our club goes to that show too...

PPDAVE, could you be so kind to send me a PM as I have lost Dave's phone number. Or his EMail would be better (I never did have that) Geoff Yarham aka Hammer. (when I was working, if I coudn't do it with a hammer I coudn't do it at all)
