Here also if you go to Youtube and enter " HMS Trowbridge type 15 Frigate " [ yes I know I entered the name incorrectly but be fair my first attempt at using this form of media ] and you can sea another of my scratch built models complete with sound modules in basic form taken in July last year at the" Cambridge Model Boat club" lake in Histon Cambridge

I chose HMS Troubridge , after meeting Karen knowing that it was a favourite of Chalky White her Dad [ now sadly crossed the bar] and like others he served on that I built you will find him in working kit somewhere near his work station on board .

She was refitted several times on a similar style to HMS Manxman and also had Steam Turbine Engine sounds added to get as near as possible to her original state and performance , and I recall when another departed dear friend "Sandy" saw her at a model show in Norfolk that we agreed to meet at saying" God I can feel her engine throbbing through my steaming boots she performs brilliantly" which to me was like God speaking in my ear ......at the time I was on boat guard duty to his HMS Rodney as we swept across the pond built there ......happy days , and sadly missed bless him
