This is one of the projects I have been working on and is now available. It is a larger scale than the previous kit offered by Model Expo and is the one Chuck refereed to in one of his postings. 

I can now show it since ME has posted it.

Here are some additional pictures for a better look at it. The decorations are P.E. brass. This is targeted for those wanting to get into boat building and learn some of the techniques of building. The challenge for me to to build it using no machines and doing everything by hand as a novice might have to just getting started.
