yvesvidal Posted March 31, 2022 #3 Posted March 31, 2022 A very rare kit for sure and a beautiful model. Yves bruce d, phebe and popeye the sailor 3
phebe Posted April 1, 2022 Author #4 Posted April 1, 2022 Thanks John and Yves, I think it's a bit ridiculous that it's a wooden model of a plastic boat too. I'm making it for a friend who wants to teach sailing concepts to beginners with a small model. It's fun while I build up my skills to tackle the more advanced projects. bruce d, Jim Lad and popeye the sailor 3 Pride of Baltimore 2 modified

yvesvidal Posted May 8, 2022 #7 Posted May 8, 2022 Marvelous!!! It brings back a lot of fun memories when I was sailing this boat on the Riviera..... Lots of cap-sizing and excitement. Yves phebe and popeye the sailor 2

Tomculb Posted May 11, 2022 #10 Posted May 11, 2022 Great work Phebe! A lifetime ago I lived in Hawaii and raced Hobie 16s, like the model, then Hobie 18s. Definitely an exciting pastime. Your beautiful model brings back some wonderful memories.

phebe Posted May 28, 2022 Author #11 Posted May 28, 2022 Thanks Tom, I appreciate your kind words. I've heard that the 16 is a thrilling experience if you are good enough to fly the hull. popeye the sailor 1 Pride of Baltimore 2 modified
