OFFERED HERE IS THE FOLLOWING: A Vintage Tall Rig Plan for Ray Ozmun's "Magic Dragon 50/800. As far as I can tell, there are only two or three of these boats still around. I know of two in Chicago and one partially built in Michigan? And yet, many, many Radio Controlled Boat Model Enthusiasts have heard of the infamous "Dragon". She was classed as an Olympic One Meter, was 40 inches long, 9 inches wide with a 5 foot(original) mast. Plan measures 32"X24", and would be ideal for framing. Came out of the original Sports, Cycle and Hobby Center in Sandusky, Ohio. Designed by Ray Ozmun and Drawn by Ron Schoder. Plan will be re-rolled and professionally mailed in a sturdy cardboard tube, and sent via Priority Mail. Please Note: Photo of finished model is here for reference purposes only, and in no way is part of this offering/listing.
I had the wonderful opportunity to attend an auction offering the lifetime collection of an engineer who spent every free hour(or so it seemed) building highly complex and extraordinariliy detailed maritime models of all shapes and sizes.  He had passed away some fifteen years prior, at the age of 88. He had a degree in civil engineering, and was a veteran of WWII.
There were people from all over the world, including owners of various tugboat companies, vying for one or several of the many treasures he had acquired or built throughout the many years of his life. I was quite ecstatic to come home with the vast collection of plans he used as a reference for his many tremendous achievements in the exclusive world of precision, large scale modeling. Most of these plans were garnered through correspondance with various countries/companies/museums including the Smithsonian Institute in Washington, the HMSO(On Her Majesty's Service), The Gore,Basildon, Essex as well as various Tugboat and Railroad Companies. Many of the plans appear unused and/or very well preseved.
