First Boat


Recommended Posts

Hey y'all, I'm new here and new to model ship building. I've done a few plastic models in the past and also have done a balsa plane kit. I just picked up my first boat kit and was hoping some of you have done it. I got the Model Shipways 18th cent. Longboat. I didn't really want to spend $100+ on a first boat and got this one for like $30. Any feedback appreciated.
