Hi all

I used to do a fair amount of modelling probably some 30 years ago and have decided to give it another go.

On of my favorites was the Keil Kraft Vosper air sea escue boat, about 34" long if I remember.

I would like to build another one but as I've just been made redubdant I was thinking about trying to get a set of plans and building it from scratch a bit at once.

Could anyone please advise where I might obtain a set.

Thanks to admin for their warm welcome

Richard from Huddersfield

Hi Richard, and welcome to the Forum.   Are you any relation to wor DickyD  :}

you can obtain a set of plans for the RTTL from my hobbies store - there is also a build which I did on this forum for the RTTL 2751 and also another build from the same plans by Howay Son and I cant remember what he has put it under, but, here are some links for you:

This information will certainly help.

If you don't have any luck with the plans let me know and I will check for my set. I bought a set in 1970 and then redrew them on good drafting paper to make them more usable. I have yet to build one but what a great boat.
