Hi,
I’ve been a member of the forum for some time, and have been using it for research, but now I’m finally getting around to starting a build so I thought I should introduce myself.
This will be my first attempt at model boat building, but it’s really a return to modelling from my much earlier days…aeromodelling back in the balsa and tissue days, and plastic modelling of cars & aircraft etc. I’m a big fan of working boats (tugs, trawlers etc) from the first half of the 20th century, so my first project will be a kit for the trawler Mary Ann from Billing Boats. I couldn’t see a build log for her on this site, so I thought that I’d put something together as I go. I’ll get that started on that in the next week or so.
Pete
