 5438 forum posts 6188 photos 435 articles | Paul Freshney's Model Boats The family of former Editor Paul Freshney have decided to sell 10 of his models. They feel they it would only be right to find owners who would be able enjoy them, as indeed Paul would have appreciated. Regular readers will know that Paul built to very high standards indeed and most of the boats are fitted out internally in almost ready to run condition with top quality components, requiring only a suitable transmitter (which may be available separately). Some of the models include ‘maintenance’ packs with spare parts and touch up paints. See this post in the the For Sale section for details: That thread is locked but you can comment on it here if you wish. There is also an album here: https://www.modelboats.co.uk/albums/member_album.asp?a=59021 Colin Edited By Colin Bishop on 11/04/2023 16:58:46 |

 2810 forum posts 4323 photos | Lovely models indeed, and ALL very fairly priced tbh. In fact quite a few of them are, I feel below their true value. Sadly no 1;12 scale lifeboats amongst them, or i would have been very interested. Edited By neil howard-pritchard on 12/04/2023 18:22:13 |

 1367 forum posts 350 photos | The trouble is Neil they have to be pitched at a level that might realistically attract buyers rather than what those in the know, such as us, think is a fair price and they don't sell. Always the same conundrum with second hand models, especially ones of this standard. |

Make your own contribution to the Website
We welcome well written contributions from Website members on almost any aspect of Model Boating with a particular emphasis on practical hints, tips, experience and builds.
In order to maintain a consistent standard and format, all suggestions should first be sent to me by Personal Message for approval in principle. Only a very limited amount of time is available for editing contributions into a suitable format for placing on the website so it is important that the material is well presented, lucid and free from obvious spelling errors. I think it goes without saying that contributions should be illustrated by appropriate photos. I shall be happy to give advice on this.
The Member Contribution area offers space for short informative mini articles which would not normally find a place in Model Boats magazine. It is an opportunity for Website Members to freely share their expertise and experience but I am afraid that virtue is its own reward as there is no budget to offer more material recompense!
I look forward to receiving your suggestions.
