I built this same 1:100 Amati one several years ago and gave it to a close family friend as a birthday gift - she still has it displayed in her living room and it's nice to see it when we go visiting. Small but nice looking!

Hi Simon,

 I know I am a bit late from saying a word. I just happened to be browsing and checked into a few Bluenose builds, and came across your build.

I was amazed at what I saw "fantastic".

 years ago I built the billings Bluenose II and was absolutely frightened to even attempt making the sails from the sailcloth.(no chance).                                             In a few short words your build is truly great,with brilliant photographs.

. Keep it going buddy.
