cdogg Posted August 23, 2013 Share #1 Posted August 23, 2013 This has been on my mind and I thought I would throw this out there. About a month ago, I was bidding on the Constructo Mayflower kit on Ebay. I thought I was getting a great deal for around $100 and was the leading bidder for around 4 days. Then I started to research the ship a little more in detail. I started to think that the Constructo version was a little too pretty for an authentic version of the Mayflower. Some of the other kits are less attractive but I found to be more realistic of what the Mayflower may have looked like around 1620. Alas, I stopped bidding and lost a great kit for around $120. I really think that when my skill level is up to speed I will grab a kit similar to what ships looked like in the early 17th century. Am I correct in thinking this way?
