Hi. I am not sure if the model will be on display when the Hull Maritime Museum re-opens next year after an extensive refurbishment. If not, you could always ask to see it privately as they are very helpful - if you live near Hull, of course. At the moment I believe all models are in controlled storage. Regards.
