Hey folks - age old question ....

any idea where to get plans for an e-boat?

A friend has scoured the internet and found nothing. His current model is based on pictures. He wants to build a five foot model as his eyesight and fingers struggle with he small detail.

Any idea where he can get plans?

advaTHANKSnce

Hi James, this is my very first post on here. Hope this is of help. Have you tried Traplet Publications? "Plans & Construction Guide" on Marine Modelling International. If you contact www.traplet.com they will help or ring UK 01684 588 599 and as for Sue and say Thelma from Swansea put you onto them. Hope this is of help:grinball2: Leslie (Just born Newbie)

Or the X-plans service which advertise in Model Boat magazine each month and specialise in out of print and hard to obtain plans.

They are a bit slow as they copy to order but very helpfull and knowledgeable.

right, there is a company named kingston mouldings and they do the 1939 german schnellboot s-9 and it dimensions are as follows Hull Length:1070mm (42") Beam:155mm (6") Scale:1/30th it will set you back £62.75 + £9.50 p&p, and it also comes with drawings, and if you want to go in to more detail go to john lambert plans.

Hi if you have'nt found a plan yet, Model Boats have now re-released all their plans on the internet www.myhobbystore.com

Vic Smeed's E Boat can be found under- static sailing craft ! Shouldn't be too difficult to enlarge.

happy modelmaking

Yep,

Can only agree with Tony above, I was about to post the same link. All the Old plans that you used to get from RCM&E etc are on the same link. There are numerous boat plans on there including E-Boats and Several MTB'S. Well worth a look.

Regards......Mark.

Thanks guys.

My friend had the Vic Smeed plans but there were several details that he could not determine due to the size and had to find photographs to figure out what they were.

I managed to get a set at 1:25 scale in Dortmund and he is over the moon with them.
