"Fairey Huntsman"
"Fairey Huntsman" - Following renewed recent interest from Model Boats Website members,
here are three variations from BMBC members of the popular "Huntsman".
(Ref from Wikipedia)
Fairey Huntsman / Fairey Huntsman 28 / Fairey Huntsman 31: The design of the Huntsman and its smaller sister, the Huntress were the inspiration of Ray Hunt and designed by Alan Burnard.

- philcaretakerCommodoreHi Peter, nice to hear from you and that the majority of Australia and borders have re-opened and that you guys managing to get back to the lake/ pond !.Hi Peter, nice to hear from you and that the majority of Australia and borders have re-opened and that you guys managing to get back to the lake/ pond !. Ok on your observations, for sails I mainly use ripstop nylon, mainly for colour variety and good light/med weather. I dont usually sail in heavy weather but I do have 1 suit made from a more ridgid sail cloth which certanly holds its form better. However, I do find that ,the ripstop does absorb streatch in heavier winds thus inducing a bit of "belly". I really must get hold of some mylar to try myself. I dont recall cutting to a triangular shape as I use a template (see photo) however I recently joined up two 2 panels with double sided tape, then did a 3 panel suit (again in ripstop) which added a batten like rigidity. I do enjoy trying out other materials and design options within the Wee Nip design brief, but now also getting fun from filming other members boats from the "Camera Nip". Take care Pete - cheers and beers !
