Too late ...it was a gift for a friend ! Great idea though for a future build . May have to add some ballast for it to sit in the water right

Thanks for looking ,

Ah! It looks Great, But does it Float???? l.o.l
Actually I'd like to try making something like this; It must be gratifying to build something this detailed. Was it a Kit or did you build it from scratch?
Thanks for sharing this

Michael ,
This was actually built from a Midwest Models kit I found on ebay for $10 . Excellent instructions and goes together well with minimal tools & glue . Painted with 49cent craft paint . I actually did a build of this on another forum . Perfect little model to begin with .

hey nice boat! i quite enjoy how the boat sits nicely with the background of the wooden platforms. i really like how you could see the grains of wood of the platform and how the boat gels in rather nicely with it.

but somehow the green on the top left was a bit distracting. maybe with the pictures you have you could crop so the green stays out.

still nice pictures! looking forward to see more of your work

Nice boat, nice shots!
Interesting perspective on that woodboards.
