Good afternoon Rob. Very nice indeed . I’m sure your daughter will enjoy that in her new living room. Cheers Grant

I was building this model ship for my daughter.

But after the last hurricane in St Petersburg, FL flooded her home, the home inside had to be torn out and rebuilt. This large ship would no longer fit in the new design of her living room. So I gave up on this model. I'm never going to finish it. It will to sink to the bottom of the Marianas Trench to never been seen again....

I decided to build her something much smaller that will fit into her living room nicely. I decided to build her Captain John Smith's Shallop. This is a cute little boat fitting for a young woman.

Size comparison of the two ships...

Hi, please don't give up on that beautiful carrack. Take her to the finish and, if you really don't want to keep her to yourself, you can always give her to some charity.
