Grand Banks Dory, 16” Scale: 1”

This model is a Laughing Whale kit I found on EBay. I made it for the wife because she want it to have a “Coastal motif” in our entertainment room.

AI added a few things aboard to make it more interesting.


This night torch used by the fisherman’s I saw on a picture and I added it to the kit together with the knife, the kook , markers and the bushels, I think it looks apropiarte.

Also this kit does not come with a rudder but it looks much better like this.

I realized that I needed to learn how to use a sewing machine if I want it my sails to look aceptable.
So I bought one and after a month trying it out, I got the courage and did the sail.
