This will be the fourth Sailing Vessel I have built using the hulls of this kit. As a Clipper Ship it leaves far too much to be desired, but as a source of "quick and easy" "waterline hulls", it has some intrinsic value.
Here, from back to front, The kit parts in the box that will not be used.
The part of the hull removed to make it a "waterline" model
The modified ( widened ) upper part of the hull, which is all I am using ( until I find a use for the rest of the junk in the box )
Port side view of the hull.
The "new" hull looking forward. The "white" part of the transom, is how much "Beam" was added to the kit hull, to make this small coastal freight hauling Cutter.

We always learn far more from our own mistakes, than we will ever learn from another's advice.
The greatest place to live life, is on the sharp leading edge of a learning curve.
Lead me not into temptation.....I can find it myself!
