Thread: Halverston style 32"

Welcome!

Dave, why don't you contact Halvorsens in Sydney and ask if they can help.

Good luck.

G'day hs and welcome to the forums.

Plenty of info here on almost anything so make good use of it and have fun.

You are in the wrong forum for model boats 32 inch boats would fall into that category
Most of Halvorsens boats are now made in Taiwan.Try adressing your problem to either Trig or Magnus Halvorsen in Sydney

Welcome Dave!

Should that be a 32 foot boat?

Dave
Here is a site that lists information on Halvorsen boats and links for an owners club and books available.I believe the National Maritime Museum in Sydney holds a lot of the Halvorsen archives. Is there a builder's plate on the boat with a number as there is a register of vessels built 1925-1976 in the book "Wooden Boats, Iron Men The Halvorsen Storey" by Randi Svensen. Good luck.
