- Bend the railing stanchions 417 for the mast platform 416
at an even angle. It is best to use a jig for forming the rails.
- Bend the rail 418 (1 mm Ø) and the rails 419 (0.8 mm Ø)
to shape, but leave them overlength for the moment.
Thread the railing stanchions onto the rails.
- Position the railing on the platform, align it carefully, and
solder the rails to the stanchions. Position the rail joints so
that they are concealed inside a railing stanchion.
- Glue the mast components together following the
sequence of the part numbers. Please note: align the left
and right mast struts 422, 423 before gluing them. Glue
the navigation frame 427 in the frame stand 426, then
install the assembly.
- Bend the signal yard struts 435 to shape from 0.8 mm Ø

Note: in the interests of clarity the handrails and the indivi-
dual railing components are shown set up on a bare super-
structure and wheelhouse.
The following handrails are made from the 1 mm Ø brass
wire:
- Aft wheelhouse (aft view of wheelhouse).
- Companionway at bridge deck to removable hatch (star-
board view of superstructure).
- 5 x on the superstructure (starboard, port and aft views of
superstructure)
- 4 x companionways from forecastle deck to main deck.
- Make up the handrails from the lengths of brass wire 441
and the stanchions 442 (split pins) and place them on the
model.
Gluing the funnels in place
- The funnels should be glued to the superstructure in such
a way that the parts form a unit, i.e. the funnels can be
removed together with the superstructure. The funnels
can be tacked to the superstructure directly on the model:
place the superstructure on the boat, position the funnels
and tack them in place with a few drops of cyano. Remove
the superstructure, then apply more cyano to the glued
joints.
Assembly instructions
Happy Hunter
brass wire, glue them to the signal yard, and solder them
to the upper rail.
- Attach the ladders 392, 393.
- Cut down the upper radar arm 436 to its final length of 40
mm. Glue the upper radar arm and the housing 437 to the
radar platform 424.
- Attach the drive shaft 438 to the lower radar unit, and
install it on the plinth 421 together with the radar housing
437.
- Drill the hole for the drive shaft in the top deck. Fit the
mast and glue the mast feet in place.
- Connect the radar drive system as shown on Plan II, using
the spacer sleeve 439 and the coupling sleeve 440. Glue
the joints.

The railings
- The railings are assembled in several sections: they con-
sist of the railing stanchions 443, the upper rails 444 (1
mm Ø brass wire) and the middle and lower rails 445 (0.8
mm Ø brass wire). The bridge deck railing requires the
additional struts 446 (split pins).
The following railing sections have to be assembled:
- Top deck - two sections
- Bridge deck with integral handrail - 1 section
- Boat deck - 6 sections
- Removable hatch - 1 section
- Main deck - 4 sections
Note: some of the upper rails terminate as handrails which
end at the appropriate ladders. Leave these rails overlength
initially.
Drill all the 1 mm Ø holes in the decks and in the bulwark for
the railing stanchions and split pins.
- Assemble all the railing sections as shown on the plan,
and fit them on the model. Separate the rails where they
meet the ventilators 358, 359 on the boat deck, and ter-
minate them in the ventilators themselves.
