Scott Johnson - or any Potterphile:
I am looking for drawings showing sections thru the hull, cabin floor,
and deck of an '87 HMS P15, specifically # 1618, although any of that
design series would do.
I would be happy to pay for the reproduction and mailing costs for
good detail dimensioned drawings, but have been unable to locate same
anywhere - hence this "Hail Mary". Without tearing Little Dipper
apart (not an option) or boring inspection holes (ouch!) there seems
to be no way to get an accurate picture of the size and shape of the
bilges, nor to see how the deck, liner, and hull are joined. Also of
concern is the placement of any reinforcements, ribs, etc.
If I can locate any drawings, I will digitize them and put the images
on my web site at various levels of detail so that others can have
access to them. Hopefully, this will prevent any exploratory
operations on our beautiful little boats as we prepare them for a new
century of sailing.
Please help me locate these drawings. Thanks for listening.
