Well, I am going to start sometime in January on mine...even if it is unofficial, hope a bunch of you join in the PT fun !

That'd be cool......I've got a Vosper that I've had an idea for for years now....it's just the actual 'act' of doing it that's holding me back !

Turn it into a floating brothel, and tell everyone it was built by Vosper Hornycroft.

Okay, I'll get me coat...

No no no...sit back down ! That's not too bad....with a couple more drinks, I think we may be onto something........

Yeah, I thought it was a great idea...a reason to build a pink PT boat.

Brown Water Enterprises is a web page devoted to the subject of Riverine Warfare and in-shore maritime operations. Created Jack Carrico, a retired Army Sergeant it has a lot of interesting images of restoration projects, models, and history. Apparently Jack is the guy responsible for creating the masters of the 1/35th scale resin riverine warfare models that are now being sold by Masterpiece Models.

Holy thread ressurections! Some cool stuff in that link JF

I can't belive it's been three years since I started my pirate Vosper!

Time to dust it off and get it moving again! No really! Hey stop laughing!

Kind of related: on the Sovietise it GB thread, I suggested converting Airfix's Severn class Lifeboat into a KGB Border Guard vessel with a grey paint job and some light weapons....
