Hi Everyone,
I have to make room at the house. A bad back has stopped all work on ST365 (http://www.rania.co.uk/ST365/). She still has her trawler cabin and is dry inside. I'd like to find her a good home. My little 32' Seaplane is also for sale ...ish. She's 80% complete & has 2x4236's & boxes. An easy fix. I'd trade her in on a nice WW2 boat that isn't a project (and not silly money). A Derby winers class or similar fast boat would be ideal.
See:

Please get in touch if you know of anything... No basket cases please!
Cheers

Hi Everyone,
Excellent news on ST365, She will be going to the RAF museum for restoration and eventual display for posterity.
It is a fitting new beginning on what has been a long and hard road for the old girl.
She is currently dry and hopefully will be in the Museums care before summer 2012.
Thanks to Ian and the chaps at the RAF museum for their commitment to save what they can while they are still around.
Anyone up for saving HSL2595 in Barcelona? It's not just people with money needed.... people who will be actively involved in restoring/crewing/fundraising. I've already got the kitty started.... Trip through the canals anyone (would she get to Bordeaux via the canals)?
Cheers
