grsjax Posted November 26, 2021 Share #1 Posted November 26, 2021 This 1/48 model of a British ceremonial barge used to be on the CAF website but I can not find it now. Has it been discontinued? mtaylor and thibaultron 2 Quote My advice and comments are always worth what you paid for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

druxey Posted November 27, 2021 Share #4 Posted November 27, 2021 (edited) It's a not very good knock-off of the Greenwich Hospital barge of 1832. And not exactly 'HMS' either!

grsjax Posted November 27, 2021 Author Share #6 Posted November 27, 2021 The question is, does CAF still sell the kit.

In fact, we'll have a review for Parts 1 & 2 of their 1:48 HMS Granado POF on MSW very soon. robdurant, mtaylor, grsjax and 2 others 4 1 Quote SAY NO TO PIRACY.
