michael mott Posted January 24, 2017 #1 Posted January 24, 2017 Back in 1984 I visited Maine and purchased this kit while there. I was cleaning up the shop today and rediscovered this kit. I thought it would be interesting to see how well you folk know your kits. Who can identify it? I do know what kit it is.

capnharv2 Posted January 24, 2017 #4 Posted January 24, 2017 Okay, I cheated a little bit. I knew that it was either a Bluejacket kit or a Laughing Whale kit. So, I went to the Bluejacket catalog and found W122 (now KLW122) is a New Bedford whale boat. I hope I didn't spoil the fun. Harvey CaptainSteve, Canute, thibaultron and 1 other 4
michael mott Posted January 24, 2017 Author #5 Posted January 24, 2017 Harvey , yes you are correct, when I purchased this kit I had every intention of building it, so who knows I might just have to do it one of these days. Tomorrow I will show the contents.

jbshan Posted February 8, 2017 #8 Posted February 8, 2017 I was gonna suggest it was a chunk of 2X6 with instructions to carve away everything that didn't look like the Miss Molly, but I guess you've already put out the answer.
