I ordered the Jeannine Marie kit on Monday morning at 10:15 AM by telephone from Corwall Models and I have received the kit etc. this afternoon at 2:30 PM. I am very pleased with the excellent service. I couldnt have got it any faster. I am busy with other things this afternoon but I will be unpacking the parcel after I get back from the lake this evening. Kind Regards

A very pretty little model. I notice that it's listed as a static display model yet the photo on the website shows it "floating" on some suspiciously real-looking water.
Are you going to make it as a working model?

I have just got back from the lake Dave and had a look at the boat kit. Actually I made one of these boats a long time ago and it is still in service as the picture indicates which was taken at the local lake. I must admit when I decided to build another of these I did wonder if the manufacturer had altered the kit to a static model. The plans and instructions are mainly in French with very little English. There is a little detail on one of the plans of some sort of radio instalation but not much. I must have the original plans somewhere from the first model so will have a look for those. Thank you for your interest. I will let you know if I will be able to install radio in it when I have found my other plans. All being well it should be possible. The dimensions of the model on the kit are the same as my old model. Kind Regards Colin

I thought I would post a couple of photos of the boat kit taken this morning. Kind Regards Colin

I thought I would post a couple of photos showing detail of the base board keel and boat frame. Now comes the hard part planking the hull.
