jwvolz Posted July 15, 2019 Author #122 Posted July 15, 2019 Sophie is complete, and has been for a while but just getting around to getting pictures up. I've been through a rough patch health wise, with four hospitalizations and two surgeries over the last few months. Hopefully on the road to full recovery at this point. Anyway...hope you enjoy the final photos, it was quite an enjoyable build, and with a few changes I highly recommend the kit.

ccoyle Posted July 28, 2019 #135 Posted July 28, 2019 With a little care, the Latham kit can be built into a pretty spectacular model. jwvolz 1 Chris Coyle Greer, South Carolina When you have to shoot, shoot. Don't talk. - Tuco Current builds: Brigantine Phoenix, Mitsubishi A6M5a,

So far Latham looks good fiddling around with things Chris. The fittings package looks decent and the Ronnberg plans (other than the rigging sheet) look good. I picked up Chapelle's "American Fishing Schooners" book and can tell it will be a nice resource. Build log to follow once I get something concrete going. Should be a nice change form the warships!

jwvolz Posted October 15, 2019 Author #137 Posted October 15, 2019 I began the Latham build a few weeks ago, and have posted a Build Log. Link to that in my signature for those interested.
