Reggiemon Posted June 9, 2023 Share #1 Posted June 9, 2023 I have a partially started Corsaro ll kit I would like to sell for the cost of you starting a build log for it on this site and postage to you. The hull has been framed up but no planking has been started. Please see pictures. The kit is complete. It has been stored in a humidity/temperature controlled environment all these years so all wood is in excellent condition. There is a recent build log by John Ruy that shows what this model looks like finished. https://modelshipworld.com/topic/33536-corsaro-ii-by-john-ruy-finished-corel-124-scale/ Are you up to the Corsaro build challenge? PM me your address so I can give you an estimate on postage costs. mtdoramike, mtaylor, Paul Le Wol and 3 others 6 Building: 1/10 scale 1922 Alden Malabar ll R/C Finished: Rappahannock Boat Works Torpedo stern, steam launch.

John Ruy Posted June 9, 2023 Share #2 Posted June 9, 2023 This is an excellent challenging kit to build. Well worth the shipping cost. mtaylor, Keith Black, Reggiemon and 2 others 5 Gallery Photos of My Charles W Morgan Currently working on New Bedford Whale Boat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keith Black Posted June 9, 2023 Share #3 Posted June 9, 2023 (edited) John, a very nice looking ship but it's taking up some valuable real-estate on your pool table.

catopower Posted June 9, 2023 Share #5 Posted June 9, 2023 Wow, that's a great deal! Would love to build this beautiful looking boat, but I think I have to clear some backlog first... ☹️ John Ruy, Ryland Craze, mtaylor and 2 others 5 Clare Hess He's a -> "HE" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mtdoramike Posted June 10, 2023 Share #6 Posted June 10, 2023 This is a very genrous offer, I would love to take the opportunity to finish it as well. But I just recently adopted a couple other orphans. I'm afraid my wife would probably give me the boot if I adopt another without finishing up a few. But just for the heck of it, what is shipping to 32757? to give an idea of the shipping cost. Knocklouder, mtaylor, John Ruy and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mtdoramike Posted June 11, 2023 Share #9 Posted June 11, 2023 (edited) I'll adopt it, funds sent this morning and make her all she can be especially since I have John's Corsaro to live up to.
