Title: Paddlewheel plans
Post by: Joe E Brown on June 13, 2005, 06:17:38 PM

My good friend, John Fryant, has released a new Paddlewheels & Props
plans catalog. It has many stern and sidewheeled vessels including
the W. H. Bancroft mentioned so often in this group. Go to my site
for his address and cost for catalog.

The info on the Bancroft was a misprint from whichever site was
listing John's plans. The correct listing is the Bancroft is a stean
sternwheel freight boat built in 1912 in Seattle Washington. It was
used on the Copper River in Alaska. There are 6 sheets in 1:48 scale
and model is 33 1/2" long, 7 1/4" beam
The plans are now $20.00
