GGibson Posted November 8 #1 Posted November 8 (edited) DANG IT, Model Shipways!!!! Here I was all prepared to just try and finish what I have waiting in my shipyard, and NOT buy any more kits, and today I get an email from Model Shipways advertising the Mayflower, explaining that Master @Chuck Passaro fashioned the prototype and wrote the 52-page set of instructions... Now I have to seriously consider adding another iconic ship kit to my shipyard, right?!? 🤷♀️🤣 Model Shipways MAYFLOWER, 1620, 5/32 SCALE (1:76) EDIT: As I was looking more here on MSW, I realized that this Model Shipways Mayflower has been around for a few years (my newbie mistake thinking initially this was new), but still.... I'm excited!

SiriusVoyager Posted November 8 #2 Posted November 8 I actually just purchased this one recently and have it in my stash now. With what I plan on building I suspect it will be about 12-16 months before I get to start it. From looking at it, it does seem like a very well done kit with very detailed instructions. Just watch for it to go on sale. I think I got it for $170 which seemed like a great price. mtaylor 1 Quote - Eric Drafting: Sultan Arab Dhow Finished: Norwegian Sailing Pram, Lowell Grand Banks Dory, Muscongus bay lobster smack, OcCre Palamos, San Francisco Cross Section
