Good day All,

Could some kind soul point me in the direction of an existing 50' steam powered RN Picket boat please?

Not something on the internet as pics thankyou.

I have done the research via the net and have come up empty-handed for a real live version.Cry

Need to 'see' a live one.  Doing props for a Gallipoli film and need to build one in a hurry.

Many thanks,

Art

Thanks Christian,

I have seen the video on 199.

They do state " maybe the last steam picket boat".  Probably correct. Boo Hoo.

Many thanks,

Arthur
