ccoyle Posted October 26 Share #5 Posted October 26 Mike, you alone are responsible for over half the build logs of kits from this manufacturer we don't see every day, which I suppose makes you our resident expert on them. Whatever became of the box stern and the buy boat? Canute, JacquesCousteau, Ryland Craze and 1 other 4 Quote Chris Coyle Greer, South Carolina When you have to shoot, shoot.

Mike Collier Posted October 26 Author Share #6 Posted October 26 I did finish the boats. I didn’t finish the build logs because it just didn’t seem like any was following or looking at them since they not big four mast sailing ships. It just seems like that all everyone wants. But I should’ve finished them, sorry. Here’s pictures of the finished boats Canute, Coyote_6, ccoyle and 6 others 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JacquesCousteau Posted October 26 Share #7 Posted October 26 Very cool! Nice job on the completed builds, and I'm looking forward to seeing following along on the new one. It's fascinating to see the variety of workboats from the Chesapeake, although I have to admit that I don't really know the difference between them all (box stern vs round stern, for example).

Mike Collier Posted October 26 Author Share #8 Posted October 26 The only difference that I know about is the round stern can backup better, I’m sure there must be more reasons for the difference I’ll have to look up more about them.

Some of us love humble workboats! If you wouldn't mind making a final post in each of those build logs, I can mark them 'finished' for you.

Mike Collier Posted October 27 Author Share #10 Posted October 27 Didn’t work to much today, watching football. I did work on the round stern adding the top and supports.In the back ground of the picture is my pot pie skiff, a killer hale and long tail drake that I carved.
