Hi!
Are you still looking for pictures of the Thorneycroft 40' CMBs? I see the date for your request was some time ago!!!!
I bought a fantastic 'Thorneycroft Brochure' (dated 1918?) titled 'A Short History of the Revival of the Small Torpedo Boat during the great War', from an antique shop some time ago (wasn't cheap!!!) and it includes some wonderful photos and drawings of 40', 55', 63' boats. If you want to contact me about this, e-mail me at: mailto:tim@deacon427.fsnet.co.uk - tim@deacon427.fsnet.co.uk
I don't want to sell it but perhaps I could get some photocopies to you?
Tim
