Dave G Posted November 14, 2021 Share #1 Posted November 14, 2021 Hello boatbuilders, I have a wooden ship that I bought in Barcelona Spain in 1980. Unfortunately it was damaged during my many moves with the Air Force and all masts are broken. I've hung on to this ship for a lot or years thinking I would take the time to try to rebuild myself. But I've come to the realization that I will never attempt a rebuild. We are moving again and with this move comes downsizing. I would like to give the boat to someone who is willing to take on this project or if no one accepts this challenge, I will be forced to just putting it in the trash. The ship is about 23" x 3.5". Again I’m not trying to sell this I am willing to give it away. Keith Black 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keith Black Posted November 14, 2021 Share #2 Posted November 14, 2021 (edited) Dave, this is a decorative model and unfortunately it has no monetary value particularly in its current state. Are there any young kids in your neighborhood that you could give it to? As a toy, if it were to put a smile on a kids face it becomes priceless. And who knows, maybe it sparks a interest in model ship building in some young boy or girl.
