This small attractive side trawler, so typical
of the thirties and forties was a conversion to a peace time trawler from one of
eight Round Table Class minesweepers built around 1943 for war service. The
design is based on the hull lines of Star of Orkney, a trawler built in 1936.
The hull is a fully detailed GRP molding with CNC cut ply deck and
superstructure A full set of white metal fittings, dowel, tube, rod etc. to
complete the model as illustrated. The Milford Star benefits greatly from the
added paraphernalia of nets, buoys and ropes. Internal lighting can be added to
give additional realism to those late night Summer and Autumn sailings.
