g'day tigertiger, only had my computer 6mts, syill learning how to use it.
The 18 ftr was built originally by my g'father in 1933 & named "THE MISTAKE". She was built for an owner in Sydney& raced with Sydney Flying Sqdn.
The model is off her lines. Keel & stem are Silver Ash,ribs & stringers Western Red Cedar& 3mm Qld Red Cedar planking, all epoxy glue.
Currently the model is owned by the nephew of the original skipper. More photo's to come.
