Title: MY NEW SPRINGER...in the bath.
Post by: eddiesolo on April 16, 2014, 10:23:28 pm: I have got a thread regarding this boat but have been faffing and added some marine signage-lifeboat, standard etc. Also added are four Graupner figures and a sound unit. So this was just a test to see if all worked well.

Wish I had made mine with a larger superstructure to fit everything in. Still, it is my learner boat and I seem to be making a fair few of the usual mistakes!
