Building a Bayliner 45’

[LordNelsonSr]

I have previously posted a ship in a bottle of my friend’s boat. I then started a 15” version of it. I bought a model of a boat that I used the bulkheads and keel as a starting point. I had to modify them a bit and add a little length to the end. I then covered it with veneer. I used balsa sheets for the cabin. Unfortunately, I didn’t take any photos in the beginning so I’ll show you what I have. The first is the bottle version which is 5” long. The next is the ship in dry docks…

I used paper for the canopy, and pins and paper lips for the railings.
