AL King of the Mississippi Lighting

[WGibson]

Received the AL King of the Mississippi kit for Christmas with the light kit and motor. I am wondering how bright the lights are. Should I caulk the small gaps where the rooms attach to the deck? This is my first wooden kit build, so the fit isn't perfect.

Hello, on the newer kit for this boat the rooms line up on the older kits they don't

I clamped  my rooms down as best I could. There is so much that go's on the boat those little Cracks won't be seen. But if your putting light you don't want the lights coming out everywhere, so you may want to chauk that. Hope this helps. Let me know if you need any help I will try to help, at the very least I know who to ask about this, the 11 finished log for the King of the Mississippi, in our database of which mine has not been marked finished come to think of it , its not there yet lol..  , it's a fun kit to put together I enjoyed , like I said if I can help I will.

Thanks much. I'll try to test it a bit before gluing the second deck on. In the meantime, I am thinking of doing a jig to get the shape of the piece at the bow. I broke the wood on the first attempt despite soaking and using heat.
