Hi Trevor,
Welcome and well done on a great start!

I do like the Bournemouth queen and am lucky enough to have a model sailing localy.

The model has been built and sailed by a Mr. A Lyndsay -

A couple of my own pics of her attached.
Please keep us up to date with your progress, also have you read the article in the model boats construction special?

I must say the Bournemouth Queen looks very much like the Medway Queen, maybe a bit bigger,
Possible built by Alsia shipyard, if so the Medway Queen plans would be almost the same. just a point!
