drumgerry Posted August 12, 2021 Share #1 Posted August 12, 2021 (edited) I bought this kit from Chris last year with great intentions. However life has taken over and I find myself needing to sell a few things. It is part built as you can see but I think it is at a decent standard. It is at the stage where second planking is needing done. There are two sets of Chris' boxwood planks in the box for that. Everything else is there and in a brand new condition. I'm looking for £225 incl postage by PayPal. This is a hefty discount on the kit as new which is £450. UK shipping only I'm afraid. All the best, Gerry Thompson (based in Moray in NE Scotland).

BobG Posted August 12, 2021 Share #2 Posted August 12, 2021 It looks like you've done a beautiful job on her so far. Really too bad that you need to sell it at this point.

drumgerry Posted August 12, 2021 Author Share #3 Posted August 12, 2021 Thanks Bob. Kind of you to say so BobG and mtaylor 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drumgerry Posted August 13, 2021 Author Share #4 Posted August 13, 2021 Ok I'm guessing £300 is maybe a bit steep. I've knocked £50 off so now it's down to £250. I'll give it till the end of the weekend and then I'll list it on ebay. All the best, Gerry mtaylor 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Ensign Posted August 13, 2021 Share #5 Posted August 13, 2021 Sounds like a bargain to me, not only do you get the Boxwood version, but the boring stuff has already been completed to a good standard. Hope you get a result.

drumgerry Posted August 13, 2021 Author Share #6 Posted August 13, 2021 Cheers BE. It is a fantastic kit and there's a huge amount of work still to be done on it. Blue Ensign and mtaylor 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mtdoramike Posted August 14, 2021 Share #7 Posted August 14, 2021 No, a lot of the fun stuff has already been done, the rigging is the boring stuff yet to be done. The planking is exceptional and a very good job on it at this point. Someone should grab this. mtaylor, catopower, drumgerry and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drumgerry Posted August 15, 2021 Author Share #10 Posted August 15, 2021 Final price drop to £225 by Paypal which makes it half price on a new kit. If no takers I'll take it to ebay later this week. Cheers, Gerry mtaylor 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
