Aquarius F3163 has her original Fairey foredeck and, rather charmingly,it has been selected so that the veneers are book matched! I don't know how many Fireflies are on their original foredecks by now, but this one has just been varnished with more than usual care! :wink:

ACB - I think "settle" is the wrong word - "brace yourself" would be better!!
