Hi,
I'm restoring a 32' BPB Seasplane tender. I found the old brass instrument panel in the bilge and am having it restored. I'd appreciate some drawings or pictures of the BPB Sea plane tenders, especially the interior & helm. I'll happily pay for them. Thanks Don |

Hiya, I've got two sets of drawings for my 40'6" ST and I got both from model plan suppliers. Even though they're for models, the detail is excellent, as they're drawn from real boats. Have a look at http://www.xlistplans.demon.co.uk/ServiceL.htm Also, try http://www.traplethouse.com/ although their website is horrible to navigate - go to "Product Search" and see what you can find - plans come up in the search results, but I can't see how you navigate to them! I've never managed to find the *actual" plans for my boat - I dare say they don't exist anymore (if they ever did in any great detail), but from what I've got, I reackon I've got enough to rebuild and restore :)

Hi Paul,
Thanks. I attach a link to Zeta, a Brooks marine 42' ST ( sold unfortunately). http://norfolk.boatshed.com/viewboat.php?boat=7504 Seems safe to register, they don't spam. There are some great photos of her. Worth downloading & keeping Kind Regards Don |

Hi Andy,
I've only got a brass electrical switch panel and some BPB Co. stamped switches. I can photo them for you if you wish. Regards Don |

If you can take photos it would be good, I think that it would be good for restorers to build up a collection of views of original fixtures and fittings. I am looking into making up some reproduction (or similar looking) parts in the future. Regards AndyS |
