What engine does the big boat have? (the 1st pic)
It looks like it could be finished with some details and fresh paint to be a very nice model.

hi, i purchased the boat with the Stuart twin launch (pic 5) for the great sum of £30+ £20 fuel to go pick it up,  i haven't decided what to do with her yet, i was going to just sell her on,but now i want to keep and finish her off, but i have so many projects on the go, the other boat is a semi flash steam, witch im restoring at the moment, iv only just finished the work shop extension so everything has piled up. :-\ but i will be getting them in order and getting on with all restorations now.
