Hi all. Here are some pictures of my MFV 63 fishing trawler that I’m building from scratch. A friend owns the trawler and supplied me with the plans. These ships are trawling at the west coast of South Africa, Scotland and Ireland. I used marine ply for the keel and hull, planking I used Meranti. Regards, Sietse I got know idée how to get these pictures smaller, sorry about it hahaha Built Albatross, build in 1982 from plans. Hms Bounty, build in 1987 from plans. Duyfken,build in 1991 from plans Oosterland, build in 1998 from plans
In the meantime. HMS Victory (Deagostini) 2011 Building MFV63 fishing trawler from plans. HMS Mayflower (Kit)
Wish list Still planning.

cheeky but i dont suppose theres a chance of buying copy plans, ive been trying to get plans for 'MFV MAUREEN' she is still sailing out of dartmouth as a liveaboard diving vessel, i myself have had this honour and want to build the model of her, she has had a couple of refits but the yard that built her no longer has plans as they were all destroyed by a fire at the boatyard. she is a 68' vessel built in a scottish yard but i could adjust plans for length and beam if only i could get hold of a set living in hope scooby diver!
