People might like to know that the 'updates' to the 1960s British 'EeZeBilt' starter kits are still continuing. The latest offering is a Warsaw Pact OSA-1 Missile Boat - actually the export version that went to India in the 1970s. Specifically the INS NIPAT of Operation Trident fame.

Free plans, instructions and a rather abbreviated (I lost a lot of pictures) build log are available here: http://eezebilt.tk/OSA.html At 32" it's rather large for an EeZeBilt, but that makes it look more impressive.  It looks a bit complicated, but that's because I've added all the detail in the plans. The basic hull and superstructure are still EeZeBilt-simple.

It would be nice to see a 'Killer Squadron' of these gracing Indian lakes again...!

What a beauty!👏👏

A lot more detail could be added, but the basic hull and superstructure is quite simple to make - there's just a little extra work making 4 missile housings.  A youngster could make one fairly easily, though probably not as a first boat without a bit of help.

I would have thought that this boat would be a favourite model in India, but there seem to be very few plans for these around at all. Perhaps this will redress the balance a bit. I would like to see a few out on the lake - they are quite a distinctive shape....

very good plan sir

The plans are designed for you to print on a standard computer printer - A4 sized pages.   This boat is quite long, so there are a lot of parts which need 2 or 3 bits to be joined together. If I could be sure that people had bigger printers, I could make the number of pages smaller...

I hope I haven't got too many mistakes in the plan - but we will only find that out when people start making the boat! 

Thank you for yet another beauty Dodgy Geezer. News of this plan brought me back to this forum after many years. Regards.
