Jim Lad got a reaction from mtaylor in USS Cape (MSI-2) by Dr PR - 1:48 - Inshore Minesweeper
Looking good, Phil!
Cut from brass or copper sheet if you have the metal working tools, Phil, otherwise (as it will be painted) you can make it more easily from a good quality, close grained timber - either cut from a single piece or built up from various smaller parts as convenient.

Jim Lad got a reaction from Ryland Craze in Ship's boat for HM Cutter Cheerful and similar ships
For comparison, a contemporary painting of the Revenue Cutter 'Stag' giving chase off the needles. Note the size of the boat stowed on the starboard side of the deck.

Jim Lad got a reaction from GrandpaPhil in Cangarda 1901 by KeithAug - Scale 1:24 - Steam Yacht
Keith absolutely nothing like your model, of course, but I thought that this image of a model in the Whitby Museum might show you the interesting effect of a steel hull left as polished timber.
