Would any member know where I might get a copy of the Linesplan (blueprints) for the above hire boat.

Or any information on her. Might there be one or two still around?

Hello
Is this a sail boat? If so, there is a
Peter Pan sailing, the way I would get in touch would be to ask Ann Whelpton at the Eastwood Whelpton Yard if she could pass a message for you.

Nope - Peter Pan was a 16' motor cruiser and a look in any of the early Blakes brochures will show a picture and a line drawing of the interior layout.
Doubt very much whether there are anymore detailed plans around - I remember in the early 60's helping build boats from plans about the size of A4 sheets of paper. No wonder two never turned out the same!

Yeah, thanks for the replies.

What would she look like below the waterline?
Would she have a single chine sheet ply hull?
With sawn frames?

What would her draft possibly be at the stem and stern.
What would her displacement be?

Any educated guesses out there in the broads...

Not much use really for what you are looking for. I do rember them in hire but I never actually went on one.
