I am restoring a pond yacht, built by my grandfather , James Melville and a Mr. Ingram in Tayport, Scotland, in the early 1930s. The hull is 55 inches long x 13 inches at it's widest point ( beam ). The mast is 62 inches tall and the boom is 33 inches long. She weighs 26lb. The measurements and weight and classic lines are consistent with a classic 6 Metre yacht design, popular with model yacht builders in the 1930s.

Shiny deck
The varnishing and rubbing down saga has sadly come to and end Such an enjoyable experience.
I'm happy with the results, I wanted a clean finish ,not to deep, I think I have achieved that.
