Hi,
Does anyone know where I could find a set of Ham class Minsweeper plans in particular based on Waterwitch or Woodlark (ex Yaxham) M2380.
Many thanks,
Rich

Woodlark ex Yaxham was a conversion to an enclosed
bridge survey vessel.
Only Woodlark and Waterwitch were the same
above the deck.
Ham class had exhausts through the hull but the survey conversions
had exhausts through funnels at the rear of the chart house.
Don't know of any plans but I would be interested.

Thanks Frank :-))
At the moment I do the Ham hull in 1/72nd scale (45cm).
I have it on my to do list in 1/35th scale (93cm), and I'd like to do it in 1/24th scale (135cm) too if I get enough interest.

Now available in 1/35th scale;

As an apprentice in the drawing office in HMNB Portsmouth I was given the task of updating the As Fitted drawings of Downham after her conversion to a Torpedo Recovery Vessel. We had a trip up the Solent on her passing under the bows of USS Independence, we felt very small!
