Boston Blenhiem fd137 stern trawler

HI Wilson
Try Googling Boston Blenheim. Plenty of info available including pictures. it was also an article and free plan in Model Boats Magazine in 1978 - to March 1979 (Part3). 😊
A short synopsis:
Built: R Dunston Ltd, Hessle
Owner: Boston Deep Sea Fisheries Ltd, Fleetwood
History
1971: To Fleetwood as a new vessel. Fished both home waters and Iceland and later worked the pelagic fisheries off the SW and NW coasts of UK.
1979: Sold, along with BOSTON BEVERLEY to Ben Mar Fishing Co, Chile. Later acquired by the Chilean Navy.
2008: Registered at Valparaiso. Current owners are Pesca Chile SA, Santiago.
I may even have a copy of the plan somewhere. 😊
Hope this helps.
Good building, why not start a blog and share your experiences. 😀
Dave
Live long and prosper
