Andy,  my son and I built the Peadar Elaine some years ago from that plan and article.   We still have it somewhere on file, I will dig it out tomorrow and let you know all about it.   Funnily enough, the boat was on display on our club stand at the Model Eng. show in Warks this weekend. Pete M

Andy, the plan was in Model Boats Vol. 48, Issue 561.   We seem to have lost the plan, but we have the build instructions which were in Vol. 48 Issues 570 to 574.   If you cant get hold of these, although there are about 20 sheets, I will email them a few at a time.   Pete M
