Hi everyone.
At the same time as I was given a 1/12 scale model of an RN Steam Pinnace (subject of thread in 'Steam'), now being restored
I was given a Yacht by the same chap. This is in pretty good condition and aside from a bit of paint below the waterline and a new fore/back stay and set of shrouds (missing), she will sail.
I took her to the local boating lake today and found out she has 'Braine' steering..................the rest is a mystery. I dipper her in the water just to wet her bum and she sits with about 1.5 inches of freeboard midships
Can anyone identify her please, type (if any), likely age.
Many thanks in anticipation
Length OA 40''
Beam 8''
Lead moulded keel
Build - Plank on frame, although rather interestingly the deck planks are 'drawn on'
