Something's missing

[Mike r]

Hello, I recently purchased a model kit of an 1847 Harvey. I only found to photocopy sheets of blurry partial instructions. Is this typical, and are there any decent instructions for this model I could get.

Hello Mike,welcome aboard!First of all where did you buy the kit and who is the manufacturer?

 

[Mike r]

I purchased the model off Amazon. I am not sure of the manufacturer.

That should be an Artisania Latina kit, Zoly.

Their instructions are generally terrible. They are more like “suggestions” than instructions.

20 years ago I tried to built the Harvey - and stopped after the hull was more or less finished.
It is this kit

I have to state, that the manual (photocopy sheets - Yes) is terrible, but also the timber quality, fittings etc. - I still have the rest of the material in the box, but never touched it once more.
If you will start the built, the best is to start also a building log, so we can try to help and assist when ever necessary and requested.

Welcome Mike r, good luck with your construction project, hope you make a build log,

Welcome aboard SOS, Mike!

I have a shrimp boat from that company in the box/new under my bench. The “instructions” are similarly lacking. I’ll start a log as well, once I start it. Good idea! This will be a challenge.

Hallo,
we wish you all the BEST and a HAPPY BIRTHDAY


The Harvey is a very old kit - at this time the manuals were more or less not existing - only some copies
