hi ian, and welcome,
yes you are right, it was a model slipway kit and a very nice one at that, however it is no longer in the catalogue, i beleived it was removed last year.
your only real hope is maybe advertising in one of teh model boat mags for an unstarted kit or complete model.

good luck

Adz..

if the fast cruisers is your thing and you cant find a broom 44 then you could look at the robbe najade, its not in the same league but is probably the nearest off the shelf item you will find,
have you tried laurie at model slipway to see if there is one tucked away somewhere ?

Hi Ian
Have you tried model slipway, they manufacture to order on the broom 44 but the GRP mouldings aren't great,
