think it might have been Caldercraft Quick build years ago when they made 3 tops for the same hul.........under the original owner' regime....frank hinchliffe.........but not positive.

Pretty sure that's not one of franks  Bill..

Looks like a 'mashup' of a sports hull and a Robbe Dusseldorf Fire boat!

I thought it was the Robbe model until I noticed all the little alterations.  I think martin is spot on, if the forward monitor stand is removed and some rebuilding of the superstructure it would look like the original again. The general lines seem correct for Robbe.
    I don't know if the Robbe spares are still available to replace the monitors etc, I would ask a good model shop like Cornwall model boats.
