- StonemonkeyMaster SeamanFantastic work Grahame, I think this is the best I have seen so far. I have noticed that most of the models I have seen have the Vent cowels facing forward, is this correct? When looking at some pictures of the actual boats they were facing backwards! I am half way through my 46'' model and am very confused.
Best Regards

Amsterdam
My Amsterdam is done from an old Latina kit. it has the board on frame hull construction of the older kits. I've done some modifications from the kit such as, larger bridle winch, bridle assemblies, extra aft deck detail, lowered engine room cover, brass lifting boom, recessed anchor pockets, enlarged rudder and various miscelaneous detail changes.
