AntonyUK Posted September 2, 2016 Share #3 Posted September 2, 2016 (edited) Hi Steve. Not seen this one on MSW but I could have missed it. Did you do a search for it ?. CMB in the UK have it in stock http://www.cornwallmodelboats.co.uk/acatalog/Corel-King-of-Prussia-SM062.html Looks a nice model. Regards Antony. Also found this http://www.modelerscentral.com/ship-model-kits/corel/king-of-prussia-cornish-smuggler-1780/ And this is some history. http://ednoveanfarm.co.uk/blog/the-smugglers-of-prussia-cove/ of the Area in Cornwall UK.

bonedoctor51 Posted March 26, 2018 Share #5 Posted March 26, 2018 I built a similar kit about 15 years ago of a Bermuda Sloop, kit was Mantua. Heavily modified from plans from the Massachusetts Maritime Museum. Check old issues of Nautical Research Guild for a reference. Fairly difficult due to the hull contour, but a lovely model when finished. Lou Canute and mtaylor 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michaeloliver Posted December 21, 2020 Share #7 Posted December 21, 2020 Hello. Is it plank-on-frame? The product descriptions I've read don't seem to say...Thanks. lmagna 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hello, Michael. I would assume that the kit is plank-on-bulkhead unless otherwise stated. Plank-on-frame would be a big selling point and would surely be mentioned if such were the case. Cheers! lmagna and mtaylor 2 Quote Chris Coyle Greer, South Carolina When you have to shoot, shoot.

michaeloliver Posted December 23, 2020 Share #9 Posted December 23, 2020 Many thanks, Chris. I actually meant plank-on-bulkhead - just careless typing I guess (or addled brain). All the best seasonal wishes, Michael mtaylor and lmagna 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catopower Posted December 23, 2020 Share #10 Posted December 23, 2020 This kit is indeed plank-on-bulkhead. And, while some listings say it's a brand new kit, I can tell you that it's been out for years. But, I don't know how many. Never built it, but I have opened up the box and looked through the plans and such. Very nice looking kit. This is one of those kits I've eyed for a long time. I like Corel kits in general and this one is a large scale, so it would make it easy to detail. Ages of Sail has it in stock, which is where I've seen it. mtaylor and lmagna 2 Quote Clare Hess He's a -> "HE" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
