Excellent pictures Tester. Class boats Fairey.

Hi Mogs

It's a Nokia N73, not too bad but sometimes the camera is very slow to react. I haven't updated the firmware latley so hopefully might cure that little niggle.

That's some camera phone!   :o
It's better that my digital camera!  :P

Did you get any pictures of the cabin and window frames?
I think that's where most models are lacking.

  Wasn't this one of the Round Britain race boats from the mid/late 60s? Chap I rented my car showrooms from was involved with one of these boats - likened it to standing under a cold shower tearing up ten pound notes.

But it keeps 'em on the knife.
