Don't know if Ruaridh had already posted this here but it's certainly worth a second look.

Particularly if you have a 9 ft hull looking for a plant.

That plant (no boiler mind) must have been about 5 feet long. It was truly incredible. I think i posted photos of it somewhere on the forum. If not i'll look them out and pop them up in a few days. Hamburg maritime museum was easily the best one i've ever been too, there was almost too much to take in!
