Can only say that your experience confirms my cynicism, as well as my opinion of their marketing methods. Think I'll remove them from my 'Sources and Shops' Bookmarks.

I have dealt with Sarik in the past, and they are very money orientated, bought two ASR plastic turrets from them, only cheap, but they slammed a large price for postage, won't be dealing with them again.😠

Hull or boat building instructions, doesn't matter.
I stand by my interpretation.
"Why else would they sell the plans separately? Sure they want you to buy their hull, but ...😉"
I have many plans for ships and boats of various types, including from John Lambert, and I don't think any of them have any building instructions included.
The former shapes help enormously of course, but even they can often be worked out or at least approximated. There are no thumbnails of the plan so can't tell if former shapes are included or not. If not the plan is not worth £15.50.
If they feel it is essential to buy both why offer them separately? Sure it's easier, and more lucrative for them if we buy both.

But reading the ad, it reads as if you want to build this boat, you will need the hull!😫
You will need to purchase both to complete this model. The plan does not contain instructions for building the hull.😮
As read....does not contain instructions for building the hull, not building the boat!😲

It simply states that there are "No building instructions".
But that never stopped an experienced modeller who knows how to read a plan from building a great model. Scratch-building!😊

Still seems to be available; plan only or plan and hull.

Did you actually order it (and pay) or what?
Cheers, Doug 😎
