I would just like to bring this topic up to date.
Unfortunately, due to a change in circumstances, H.M.S. Marlborough will NOT be sailing at this event, but hopefully it will be making an appearance for display, (as under construction).
As most of you are aware, I have put Marlborough on hold, whilst I continue building H.M.S. Victorious, so I will be sailing her instead.
The reason being that I can get Victorious built, to a more advanced stage, than I could get Marlborough. Another reason for this decision, is to make sure that there will be at least one operational Aircraft Carrier at this event. Unless another one unexpectedly turns up on the day.
So far quite a good selection of warships will be present, including my Type XX1 German U-Boat, Ron's H.M.S. Iron Duke, Paul Simpson's H.M.S. Dreadnought, Dave Wooley's Amethyst? and what I have heard through the grapevine, it maybe that two splendid models of H.M.S. Rodney and H.M.S. Vangaurd could be making an appearance, as well as many more smaller models.
It seems that this event could turn out to be quite a spectacle. Let's just hope so and that the weather is kind to us.
Sunday July 2nd at Kingsbury Water Park, Warwickshire, just off Junction 9 (M42).
It would be nice to see as many British modeler's as possible, from this site, at this event, so if you can make it, come along and bring what you can, with you.
You will ALL be made very
