No haven't seen it but for that price I would want it on DVD not VHS.

If you want to see some nice old boats (some steam) get this book.

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/...1255168970&sr=1-2&seller=

There is one new copy for just $2.60 plus $4 shipping and others for $8 to $10.

Its a different cover to my copy but I'm sure the same book which has some great photos of lovely old tin boats and if you get the copy for $2.60 its a steal.

Neither do I.
I got the other book at a discount shop for $9 OZ.
At that price I couldn't pass it up.

I haven't seen it or got it but I do have the Shire book 'Toy Boats' by Basil Harley.

I also have Paddle Steamers by David L Williams.
