adivedog Posted August 9, 2014 Share #31 Posted August 9, 2014 Russ Great job on the skiff. I'd like to try one of them sometime. I see what you did on the oarlocks.

drl620 Posted January 9, 2015 Share #33 Posted January 9, 2015 Sir, I am a recently retired shipyard worker and want to get into building some locally relevant ship models like the oyster skill, lugger, and most of all like the Biloxi Schooner. I can't seem to find any ship plans that I can scale down to use. Any ideas? thanks for your time, Doug Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

russ Posted January 9, 2015 Author Share #36 Posted January 9, 2015 Dave: Thanks. This is a really enjoyable, simple, short term build. This is a weekend project if you want. You can take as much or as little time with it as you please.

russ Posted July 29, 2017 Author Share #37 Posted July 29, 2017 I have replaced the photos in this log that were lost recently due to Photobucket's changed policies.

Siegfried Posted July 29, 2017 Share #38 Posted July 29, 2017 Hello Russ, wonderful build. It is a good example how interesting a little tiny vessel can be for modellers. Bravo.

russ Posted July 29, 2017 Author Share #39 Posted July 29, 2017 Daniel: Very true. These little boats can be built with just a few tools and some store bought basswood. Using spare time, they can be built in a week or two.
