I have three things I would like to give away:


A Model Shipways solid-hull Harriet Lane model kit


How to Make Old Time Ship Models by Edward W. Hobbs (1977). This hardcover book has foldout hull plans for the Royal Albert.


The Neophyte Shipmodeller's Jackstay by George F. Campbell (1976).


I was intending to build the Harriet Lane in retirement, which began five years ago, but my eyesight and dexterity have declined enough that I have decided to give it up. When I was young I built the Model Shipways Phantom and Forester models and scratchbuilt a small vessel.


So if you can make use of the model kit and books or maybe could use them to help someone get started in the hobby, just let me know.
