Getting the next project ready for travelling
Dunkirk is renowned for the myriad of Little Ships that went to the rescue of our troops.

All to many didn't return, this will hopefully be a tribute to those that didn't come back
The boat I shall be modelling will be prototypical and based on one of the 31ft 6" (9.6m) Silverette class of boats (the smallest was Tamzine at 14 ft /4.6m)
The Silverette was offered with or without wheelhouse. Single or twin screw.
Some of the class are still afloat today
No hull lines were available, I'm grateful to Mo (ex boatbuilder) for casting his eye over my efforts to replicate the hull form
I wont go into too much detail as to how I formed the Fibreglass hull as it's all been done before.
The plug is like me, rough around the edges but just about up to the task
I hope you will join me for the one way voyage
