    Thanks for kind comments guys and for the section Willie. Gas bottles are made from wood dowelling shaped on a lathe.  Cut and shape valve guards from plastic tube then fabricate the valve/pipe ends from plastic rod. Takes me about half an hour each.

    Absolutely splendid, Will!  Had to look closely at the background to realise that I was not standing on a real pier looking at a real boat!  Great work!  All your models are stunning.  Donald

    Thanks chaps.  If you keep this up you're gonna overload me with inspiration for the next one.  Planning on a bonny boat, the Girl Jean AH76.  Found one excellent and one good reference photos. Anybody got any more please?
