Model Boats Magazine November 2025 Edición anterior

Welcome to Model Boats Magazine November 2025 issue!

Perhaps rather appropriately, as this issue goes on sale just ahead of Halloween, our free pull-out plan this month is Spooky! But fear not, as contributor John Goodyear has tried to keep his super-sleek Club RG65 Racer design (relatively) easy and inexpensive to build by following the instructions laid out in his illustrated guide to the
model’s construction (starting on page 42).

I think I’ve mentioned in a past column that I like to put together a
themed play list of tunes I can have on in the background while I work.
Naturally, this month it was cue Dusty Springfield’s Spooky, followed
by a whole host of fantastic tracks inspired by Nick Brown’s AAR (After
Action Report) on the build of the Dean’s Marine 1:24 scale Vietnamera
LSSC laser-cut kit (starting on page 10).

But while Nick’s crew figures conjure up the heat of the Mekong Delta, winter is now on its way (at least for those of us in the Northern
Hemisphere). So, if you’re looking for a project you can tackle indoors
(rather than needing to spend hours in a perhaps less than warm and cosy garage, shed or workshop), then you need to check out this month’s exclusive prize draw (see pages 26-27). Thanks to the generosity of Fentens Productions, we’re delighted to be able to offer you the chance to win one of five of HMV (Hamburger
Modellbaubogen Verlag) kits and laser cut set packages for the 1:250
scale Flower Class corvette HMCS Agassiz (as featured in the first
instalment of Stuart Deacon’s new series The Learning Curve, starting
on page 18).

You couldn’t really get three more different vessels/models/builds, but
of course that’s not where the variety stops, as you will discover in the
pages ahead.

Enjoy your read,
Lindsey (editor)
