I've been a little stuck drawing up dimensioned plans for an overly ambitious scratchbuild- Silly me, I didn't think I'd need them. But I have also been itching to cut some wood. With Columbian Narco Subs in the news and one of those ten dollar Chinese laser cut fishing boat kits at hand I decided to build one. The kit is this one:
An astonishing bargain, and very nicely done. Since EVERYTHING is laser cut, the fittings are a little crude, but it would build into a nice fishing boat kit. It is also small, which made planking a little difficult. Since the real Narco Subs are lumpy fiberglass, that really won't matter. The hull went together in a day, with the stem sharpened up and the stern extended and rounded off. I'll post pictures when it starts to look interesting. If you are not familiar with these modern pirate ships, just google the term. Or the mother lode of information is at:
