cahill Posted May 17, 2014 Share #1 Posted May 17, 2014 I'm a modified-scratch builder of limited skill. I would like to build either the "Robbie Hunter" or the "St. Thomas". both dating from the mid-to-late 19th century.I have the plans of one and will shortly have the plans of the other. I need help in figuring out the sequence of operations in beginning the hull structure. Have anyone scratch-built a Scow Schooner that might give me some assistance. Thank you.

Jim Lad Posted May 17, 2014 Share #2 Posted May 17, 2014 Mandan, If I were building one I think I'd simply build in the same manner as any other ship - backbone of keel/stem/sternpost; frames; planking. As a matter of interest, are those scow schooners as flat as this one from New Zealand? John captainbob 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
