Hi
We’re scratch building the boat with plans from Sarik. She’s 1/24th scale and the original was owned by the company I first went to sea with.

We started at the end of April (2021) an do about 8 to 10 hours a week on her.

The planking has begun. Slow but steady!

Slow and steady. Not long until the exterior of the hull will be ready for filling, sanding and priming. 😀

So we have finished planking the hull filling the gaps (with car body filler), sanding down and it’s just had a second coat of primer.

Does anyone know where I can buy a lead torpedo keel weight. Really don’t fancy making one myself 😱

Afternoon all. A quick update on our model’s progress. The RC gear has been fitted and the decking is going on. The Masts, Spas and bowsprit have been turned up.

Can anyone let me know if Mastman is still in business as I am struggling to get hold of him?

Thanks

She is coming along. The bulwarks have been made and will soon be fitted. The masts, spars and sprits have been turned and we should be getting some bits and pieces from the ‘new’ Mastman very soon. Including the keel 😀
The photos were taken last night.

It works 😀
