Hello, I read in a thread on here that a chap called Tim Measures was building a Darby One Design hydro.
I PM'd the guy who mentioned it, but no reply.
Could anyone who knows the boat and/or Tim Measures get in touch?
Cheers,

Re: Darby One Design
I've got tim's details somewhere. let me have a look round for you and I get back to you.
I saw the boat at both this years and last years river soar event. Its fantastic. He also has all the build photos which I would imagine to be very helpful as a reference point.

Re: Darby One Design
Ho...Lordy! Thanks Andy. That would be a marvellous help.
My intention with this model is to have it become a one class model kit that model boat clubs can compete with against each other in some sort of league. All using a proscribed motor, battery pack, etc.
I look forward to hearing from you.

Errrrrr . . . . . . . Are you sure you meant "proscribed"??
I hope my new Alpine floats better than my old one!
Re: Darby One Design
No, just testing, though I'd have preferred a more topic-related comment, but I got that one wrong. You know what I mean, I'm sure.

Humblest apologies - not yet used to this forum's ethos as far as humour/off-topic is concerned.
Would you like to borrow my sign?

I know this is not what you are after but in my search of everything "crackerbox" I came across this site.

Re: Darby One Design
No apology necessary, Tatra man. I got that one horribly wrong after a bad day and didn't mean to get tetchy.
Sorry.
Forum life is always a bit touch and go in my experience. Not just this one of course!
Thanks, sean-nos, I'll check it out.
I've now made contact with Tim Measures and we had a good old natter about his sterling project building a replica in his garage with hand tools!
