I goggled Rubicon and the top answer was a rather pricey restaurant in Canberra.
Is this a model of Fatty Goering's floating restaurant/dressmakers/communications hub which he planned to use to command the air lift of the Wehrmacht following a successful landing from a strategic location on the Wey and Arun canal just South of Burpham?

An armoured Narrow boat !!!!!! Interesting . But no I discovered something that were named after Italian rivers and decided to give it a slightly bigger half brother

But there's some nice scratchbuilding work going on there.

And a different use for the Airfix Pontoon Bridge.

Cheers

That's a neat one ! I think that's one of your best boats yet !

Thanks . It came together well.

If anyone wants to scratch build one of those mine sweeper rings . The Dapol turntable would be a good starting point.

The bow are turntable bits
