Hi I am new here and need some help.
I recently subscribed to the HMS Victory and received the first package of 4 magazines and instructions books but unfortunately they are in Dutch as I am based in Belgium. Are there folks here who have already finished with their build and have no need for the instructions and are willing to share the books, I am ready to pay for the shipping.
Thanks.

Give 'admin' a 'PM' as soon as possible, they should get it sorted.

The problem you might have in securing UK copy's is that the Dutch parts pack content may not be in the same sequence as the UK content, and that parts may have been moved around as is the case with the UK and Japanese versions of the Mclaren., which can be the case when a series moves from country to country, as the roll-out is dictated by each country. But at least you'll have a full set of UK instructions if someone can assist.
It might be worth looking on eBay, because once a series has ended, some builders then put the magazine content up for sale.

The only thing is I will miss out on all the additional information in the magazines. The information there will help me be more knowledgeable about tall sailing ships :) BTW someone has already contacted me and is willing to ship his magazines.

Thanks. Hi there, I have a spare set of magazines (not parts) I could let you have issues 1 to 50 if that helps. All I ask is that you pay for postage and packing. Please pm me your details and I will send them to you. Hope that helps you out. By the way if any one else is missing a magazine, just let me know and I will have a look to see if I have a spare. It's free, all you have to pay for is postage and packing. Regards
