We have a number of model ships available for sale in aid of society funds. All have been donated for that purpose. The models mostly need some tidying up and in some cases the display cases need attention. The best of the batch for condition, character and historical interest are undoubtedly the lightship and PS Waverley. All models are available to view at the ship and Visitor Centre during normal opening times on a Saturday. At other times telephone Brian Goodhew at the Visitor Centre to make enquiries: 01634 575717. The models are as follows (dimensions are approximate estimates)
1. Glen Gower - model mounted on display base 30inches approx. 2. Robert E Lee - in display case which needs work. 15inches approx 3a Small paddle steamer in case. 6inches approx 3b RMS Mauritania in display case. 15inches approx 4. South Goodwin Lightship. Working light but untested. Historical notes. approx 12inches -- SOLD 5. PS Waverley (not illustrated) approx 54inches All models need to be seen before purchase as in most cases some work will be required. As far as I know Glen Gower and Waverley are working models but untested and without control gear. Comments are closed.
