I bought this kit about a year ago and i did NOT do a good job with building it. I wanted to make this to be a Wildwood NJ lifeboat instead of an Atlantic City boat. I bought another kit and with ONE wood ship built thus far, i thought I would do better, but I am obviously still learning. I used wood glue to seal the interior and large gaps in the planks. I used watered down white glue on the outside of the boat. Here is what I have done thus far:IMG_2132.jpegIMG_2133.jpegIMG_2134.jpeg
