Whippett plans, please.

Post by Editor »

Hello, I would like to make a working model of a Whippet hydro, but cannot find the plans I traced at the Pitsea museum.
Has anyone a set tucked away they could photo-copy or lend me whilst I redraw them for my model project?
Many thanks,
Editor

Thanks, Howstar, but they're all G;enn-L designs. Very nice too, but, as the fox says on the advert, not a Whippet.
It's the one that Mills Boatyard do replicas of, but he rather mystifyingly sent me to the Pitsea Museum. Clearly he hasn't heard that they've been shut down. Equally clearly he must have drawings, but won't share them! I only want o make a model, not put him out of business!!

Cheers,
Editor

Hi
I know this is a really old thread but I have been searching high and low for anything on the Whippet class. All I can find is one drawing and maybe three pictures. Plans, offsets, anything would help I want to make a model of one
