Hi All,
I was searching for a review of HMS Peregrine by Corel and found quite a few here, it was only when I started looking that I realised I was already a member of the group.
Anyway, to catch up, I have built Victory (who hasn't) Mayflower, almost finished Emma C. Berry, Bluenose, and now just started HMS Peregrine.
I have to say I am surprised by all the positve reviews of the Peregrine, as I have found it so far to be the worst model I ever built, and for the price (although this was a gift) I think it's a complete rip off.
Faults so far, few of the slots in the deck for the ribs are either off or not cut to size, the wood used for the keel and ribs, must be the cheapest ever (I broke the keel first day), the rear decks have the same problem, not lining up, and lastly, at the moment, the printing on the printed hardwood sheet is off centre and part of the Crows nest bases are off the sheet.
Sorry for the rant, maybe I got a bad one, let me know your thoughts.
To make me feel better, I just bought Occre's HMS Beagle 😉
Regards
Paul
