Hello from NYC/NC!


Recommended Posts

Thank you for allowing me to join! I come from a family of fishermen and tugboat captains in eastern NC. I grew up on boats in coastal NC, but have lived in NYC for most of my life, I miss the water and look forward to trying my hand at modeling, especially boats built by my grandfather. I'm starting off with the Model Shipways Dory/Pram/Smack and hope to eventually be able  to scratch build models of boats my grandfather built as well as the tugboat Patriot (now Java Sea) that my dad was captain of.
