The Real Andrea Gail

[Bovine]

Thank you for your review and kid words! This was my first purchase from Billings. It was a very good kit. If you have never done a plank on frame build you will find it challenging. Good luck!

Loved the thread, this build is fantastic. The accuracy is pretty much spot-on the only real difference is the size. Your masting, boom, and outriggers are spot-on as well as the setting-out house near the transom.

I'm sure you've probably come across these yourself, but since I saw you have an interest in the Andrea Gail like I do, I thought I'd share all my available photos of the vessel, including these rare high-def pictures (sourced from the daughter of an old photographer who was in Marblehead the year before the storm).

Love this build and the story behind this famous boat.

Thank you for the kind words and the pictures..! God I wish I had a couple of those when I was building her.
