Thanks very much for all the tips. I have managed to find locally a copy of plans for a 45ft Admiral's Steam Barge which looks very similar to what I call a Picket Boat although I have also seen them referred to as a Steam Pinnace. The plans have "Modellers Draught" in the top corner and "copywright 1993 Conway Maritime Press Ltd" along the bottom. I believe they may have come with a copy of Model Shipwright but the person who found them for me cannot find the magazine. They do have lines and sections on the back so would be useable to build a model from. As for the Chimaera plans can anybody be more specific about the issue of Model Shipwright which they came with? A search of the Abebooks site for "Model Shipwright Number 3" brought up Vol 1, Number 3, Vol 2 Number 3 and also just Issue 1, 2 and 3. None of the bookshop sellers list the contents which makes it kind of difficult so any more clues would be appreciated. Thanks, Ian.
