Zephyr Steam Boat - Puget Sound, Late 1800's

This is a 1:96 scale model of the steamboat "Zephyr" which worked around Seattle, Washington.  Plans were drawn off photos of the actual boat, scaled from a man seen on the deck and assumed to be about 5'10" tall.  I built this model in the late 1990s but never posted it before.  The model is basswood planking on a solid, carved hull.

This is really cool! Thanks so much for sharing. I love the consistent weathering and style,  very realistic while not overdone.

The ship's layout is similar to the Lindberg 1/64 Southern Belle sternwheeler....
