Over 30 years ago I tried to build a Plank on Frame model. I failed miserably and gave up. I am now attempting to build a model once again. A big difference now is the information available on the internet and sites like SOS. I started my build before discovering this web site so I have some catching up to do to get to where I am currently at in the build. So here goes.
I chose the Model Katy of Norfolk from Model Shipways. My research indicated it was a good beginner model. It is a solid hull model which I thought would be a good starting ship and let me avoid the challenge of planking. These are the pictures of the hull as it comes from the vendor.
