tkay11 Posted March 31, 2020 Share #153 Posted March 31, 2020 If you look at Wikipedia under 'gunboat' one answer might be 'decked gun yawl'. See the picture of a similar boat on the right.

greenstone Posted May 16, 2022 Author Share #173 Posted May 16, 2022 Thank you, James. I won't guess, but in two weeks the first one will be ready for a photo on a box. Then we will make the changes that we identified during the test build and we will assemble another model - the control assembly. chris watton, Ryland Craze, thibaultron and 5 others 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ccoyle Posted May 18, 2022 Share #178 Posted May 18, 2022 So, is this a different kit than the 1/72 scale gunboat that was in development back in 2020? I'm just trying to figure out where this kit is in relationship to the other kits in the development pipeline. Would also really like to see some progress reports on those other kits!

(hint hint) In February 2020, we started talking about the MK 0304 "42ft launch rigged Yawl with a 24-pound carronade (1841)". Scale1/48. In February 2020, we started talking about the MK 0305 "22-oars two 24pd-gun gunboat of the Baltic fleet,1848" Scale1/72. We have a lot of projects almost ready, but not put into production. The delay in the release of new kits was due to the fact that we were engaged in patenting and protecting intellectual property rights for our developments. It took almost two years. Now we are engaged in the MK0304 project in wood. Paul Le Wol, ccoyle, thibaultron and 7 others 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
