[Chris Preston]

Hello Everyone,

As I joined Model Boat Mayhem earlier this year in April, I think I'd better get around to introducing myself. My name is Chris Preston, and I live in Victoria, BC, Canada (the "left" coast, politically and geographically). I'm 62 years old, semi retired (RCN - 44 years as a Reservist, retiring as a Chief Petty Officer, and Victoria Police - 25 years). I've been building models since 6 or 7 - static and R/C, Naval, Army, and Air Force subjects, and am currently working on a Deans Marine kit of their BPB Co 71' 6" MTB, as used by the RCN during the Second World War, updated with a beautiful set of propellers, shafts, and P-Brackets from the Prop Shop.

My other "hobby" is periodically driving and maintaining a one-to-one scale Daimler Ferret Mk 2/3 Armoured Reconnaissance Vehicle.

Cheers,

Chris Preston,
Victoria, BC,
Canada

Chris,

Welcome to the mayhem, look forward to your posts.

Plenty of modelling madness here

And the ability to park where the heck you want!! No one clamps a Ferret 

Welcome to the forum Chris.

Thanks All.

You certainly "dominate" the road in a Ferret. No one argues with you. 

Cheers,

Chris
