Model Shipways Gunboat Philadelphia Build.

It has been a while since I planked a hull. This kit, I must say, is brilliant. Last two kits were Dumas, 36' MLB, and Small Shelly Foss. This one seems easier. Looking to take like a half a year or so to do this one, it is not a priority. But it keeps me busy in my down time at work. Ahhhh! Just realized, I will have to rig this one too.

Will follow the Model Shipways build for sure Kevin. It’s been decades since I tried one. Curious on how you like the engineering with their plank-on-frame. Keep the pix coming!😉

Three hours in. A simultaneous build along with the Yacht America. It will be fitted for R/C use. The Lake Champlain replica is painted, I most likely will do the same.
