| Does anyone have any models of this? Does anyone have any models (R/C or static) of the Caledonian MacBrayne vessel: Mv Lochnevis? |

| Robert,
Are you thinking of building or do you want to buy a completed model?
If you are building have you looked at the traplet plans service site yet?
If you are wanting to buy a completed model try posting on the Model Boat forum at: www.modelboats.co.uk/
and also try Model Boat Mayhem site at: www.modelboatmayhem.co.uk/ |

| | All Round Modeller | Hi Bod,
The Traplet Plans service is a model plans service run by the publishers of Various Radio Control Magazines in the UK. The link to their website is here: http://www.traplethouse.com/
You should be able to navigate to the plans service on there.
Regards......Mark

| Another excellent source of a vast number of plans is: www.xlistplans.demon.co.uk
They archive an incredible number of out of print plans and are very willing and helpfull when it comes to trying to find a specific for you.
It will take a while to get a plan though because most have to be copied from an original for a particular order.
They did come up with one for me a few months ago when everyone else was saying it was long out of print and it wasn't even on their plans list. |

| If you write to Xlist they can come up with plans that are not actually listed as the list is being continuously developed.
I dropped them a line and they were very helpfull and came up with a set of plans for me which they didn't have listed. |
