Title: Maxwell Hemmens ' lady Jane'
Post by: NickJ on July 23, 2022, 03:02:10 pm
Afternoon All,
My first post as a novice steam launch builder and I need help already!
I have just bought the above kit (including unused Max II steam plant). Whilst almost complete with all paper work (including building instructions)and parts, there is no boat plan/drawing. Does anyone know if a plan was ever included and if so, are there any suggestions as to where I might obtain a copy?  I've tried all the places I can think of on the internet but so far, nothing!
Any advice would be most welcome as I don't feel I could tackle the build without the plan.
Thanks,
Nick

Hi Nick.


    I presume this was the kit on eBay a few weeks ago , good buy.
        As a first try go to the search box at the top of the page and enter "Lady Jane"   . You will find a whole load of Lady Jane model builds , some of which might give you a good insight of how to proceed . The LJ is not a complex build and you might find enough info on those pages to guide you, if you still need plans send a PM (personal message ) to likely members on the list who have done builds and ask them if them still have the plans .
  cheers and welcome   Balders
