Waiting for my Muscongus Bay Lobster Smack Kit, this will be the second attempt. I will finish the first attempt, which I am not satisfied with, but the first was quite a learning experience. Hoping number 2 comes out much better. should be here in a few days.
The hull will be yellow. On the Chesapeake Bay the hulls are mostly white, but the Maine waters are much rougher, and if a boat needs to be rescued, a yellow hull is much easier to spot. (UPS says delivery scheduled for December 2nd)

Looking forward to watching your progress. Post lots of pictures. Also, you should add the name of the ship model in the thread title.
