Bobcat1970 Posted June 12, 2021 #1 Posted June 12, 2021 Hello to all: Being that the Swift 1805 is my first "ship" model; I would like the opinions of the the forum. Prior to the Swift, I used to build RC planes. I want to increase the difficulty in my next model after I build a model engine display case. What are the better quality ship kits available? I found the manufacturer's instructions on this ship to be slightly vague at times. I do like a challenge, but am not ready yet for ships like the Constellation, constitution, Morgan or the Norwegian Lion. Thanks, Bobcat mtaylor 1 Quote
ccoyle Posted June 13, 2021 #2 Posted June 13, 2021 Lots of good choices out there from Vanguard Models, Master Korabel, MarisStella, probably a few others I'm forgetting at the moment. mtaylor 1 Quote Chris Coyle Greer, South Carolina When you have to shoot, shoot.

VTHokiEE Posted June 13, 2021 #3 Posted June 13, 2021 (edited) I haven’t built one from either but based on what I’ve seen I’d add Amati and Syren to the list above Edited June 13, 2021 by VTHokiEE mtaylor 1 Quote Current Build: HM Sloop Echo 1781 (First Scratch Build) Previous Builds: HM Cutter Alert, Sharpie Schooner, Chesapeake Bay Flattie, Half-Hull (NRG)
