Is this the same type of boat as in the Airfix MTB kit? I mean hull and cabin or just hull?

That looks like John Lambert's drawing of the Vosper Type II (the Airfix kit being the Type I).

As far as I know, (help PTBConsulting!)  it is the same ship, but with a six (yep, 6!) pounder on the bow...what  a ship!

Yes, those are John's drawings and it is a Type II.  His style is distinctive and easily recognized, but you can also tell by the L/S/# .

I tried the link you posted and only members can view it.  I'd rather not join ... but if Dr. Ross says it's John's drawing, I won't argue.

The Airfix Vosper MTB kit has the same hull and cabin but different armaments.  It had 4 torpedo tubes, 40mm Bofors in the front and several LewisMGs in the back.  Everything else looks the same.
