Sincere apologies for the long delay in responding to above posts, but working some 170 miles from home for over a year has impacted on my 'spare' time.

Have now finished the 'draft' drawing for a working model at 3/4" to foot (34" overall) and I am in the process of "proving" the fit of the formers etc. The only area where I do not have too much information is the deck and especially the cockpit area. There is News Reel footage (Pathe) on the net and towards the end of the item, the Brave Moppie is seen mooring in the winners enclosure.This is the best detail I have so far.

I shall be providing constructional pans for both 24" and 36" as a download or 'at cost' for copies via snail mail - if anyone is interested?

Hi Propwash,

   Really interested in getting hold of a plan for the 36" version , if and when you get there.  I recently acquired a pretty good SHG Surfury fibre glass hull from the 70's. The two would make good companions!
