Hi All

Just a few pics of my latest build, I did start it a couple of years ago , fitting the prop shaft/ motor and rudder . Restarted the build and been making steady progress over the last few months .

MBD 1/16th grp hull /deck /capping rail/wheel house and roof , pretty heavy but strong the rest is scratch built more or less .

Thanks for looking

Lovely neat and tidy job. Great colour scheme as well.

Very nice indeed. Sharp and clean. What's the OAL? I first thought it was on deck of a lager vessel and that there was a porthole in the background. Of course, it not take me all week (only 6 days!) to see where she was 'slipped'.

Thanks for all the kinds words ,

The OAL is 25" x 11" beam

And the port hole is 18" at 1:1 scale lol.

She is just a generic type of a fishing boat .

Maiden sail yesterday all went well and completely dry inside after 3hrs of been on the water , that's a result in my book!

Working on the mast tonight , I have used my airbrush for most of the painting on the model just to get some practice in, so far so good.

More updates to come and hopefully I will have her more or less finished by the end of the month for our last club event .
