Aerokits Solent Class Lifeboat - Douglas Currie
Please see my previous post for the story so far. Photo 1 shows my Lifeboat with its first paintjob and on its first sea trial on King Lear's lake, Watermead Country Park, Leicestershire. Photo 2 shows the boat with its completed paintjob and handrails having been fitted bought from Speedline models which are made of pewter so can be straightened it accidently bent. Photo 3 shows my Lifeboat on its first official outing at the Midlands Model Lifeboat Show at Dudley in May 2008. My crew have now been added also bought from Speedline Models 1/12th scale as they are the best quality resin cast figures I have seen. Strictly speaking they are too moderned dressed but I like the quality so I decided to fit them. The last photo shows it loving the rough seas again at King Lear's Lake at times having 10 to 12 inch waves.

    Love the rough water shot! its given me some inspiration to finish my own 3/4's built Aerokits Solent given to me by my plumber !
    I have fitted 2 decaperms and Bobs Boards and have all the bits to complete it apart from railings.Do Speedline still stock railings?
    Could also do with some detail pics as I have only got the original plan.
