www.metcalf-mouldings.com is the link shown on the traders page but comes up as "not found".
Trying
http://business.virgin.net/metcalf.mouldings/catalogue.htm
however, finds the catalogue.

Nothing wrong with my link, then click on River Star.

On the other hand, when I took up the alternative suggestion of
www.metcalf-mouldings.co.uk
it worked

I built this as my first "proper" model boat:



The result is lovely. Easy to sail, big enough to look good on the water yet small enough for easy storage and carrying. It's prettier than other boats too...

Believe this kit is no longer available.
Have asked Dave Metcalf a couple of times for one but he said it was most unlikely he would do any more.
A pity as it's a bit different and looks like a perfect beginners boat.
Don't think the web site has been updated for quite a while.

If this is true, and I can't remember seeing it on his stand for a while, then it is a great shame. Apart from a couple of niggles to keep you on your toes, this is a fantastic kit. Good value for money too.
