Hi, I’m a newbie and have a question for the group. I’ve been looking for a small wood river paddle boat kit, say less than 20”. I haven’t had any luck finding anything less than about 25 inches long. I’ve build about seven boats from kits so maybe I’m an advanced beginner and I don’t like large scale model boats. Thanks for your help and I look forward to hear what folks have to say. Andy
Have a look at this little beauty-

Just bought the https://www.modelerscentral.com/model-ship-kits/modellers-shipyard/isabella-paddle-steamer-1912/ and https://modellers-workshop.com/blue...-new-york-pilot-boat-316-scale-wood-ship-kit/ from Facebook Marketplace. Both for $45aud. All bags are still sealed!
This may be old news - I see your post is from 2022, but in the event you are looking for a small paddle wheeler, here's one to consider. It's an HO scale kit made by Interaction Hobbies, B.C. Canada. I built their larger model - O scale - about 25" long, but this one is smaller at 13". The kit is very high quality and lots of great detail. Instructions are first-rate.
