As far as I know it's not back up yet. I read somewhere within the last few days that they are still working on it. They have apparently managed to save most of the old posts from the forum and hope to get them back up too.

Title: Model Boats (magazine) their website
Post by: Brian on September 26, 2006, 06:33:05 AM

The editor of the magazine Model Boats was contacted at the beginning of May 2006, and he asked that folks give them a couple of weeks more to get the website sorted. The problem occurred due the change of publishing company.

Their website used to be - http://www.modelboats.co.uk/

But when trying to access this link the user is redirected to an Internet Service provider - http://www.globalgold.co.uk/

It is unfortunate that it hasn't yet been arranged to provide a page  explaining the situation to those who are searching for the web-site of the "Model Boats" magazine.

Brian,
         this is exactly the same answer I got back in May/June. I am wondering how long it is going to take them to get either their own new website up and running or at least and explanatory note on Global Gold's website, after all it is a business.
