Post by: Jerry1 on September 10, 2018, 07:49:53 am: Hi Stuart
The reason for the interest is i have come back into model boating in a big way with lifeboats. Also i knew Tony in the days of Chichester Lakeside Model Boat Club. I would like to join a club that supports RNLI with model shows. I have at present a Trent and a Tamar class lifeboats both 1/16 scale.
Thank you Jerry
