After building plastic kits for a very long time I decided I wanted a change of pace . I got interested in wooden boats/ships after seeing some in a museum in Chicago . After building two , and not all that well I must add I came across this kit on eBay . I was hooked and ordered it . Been working on it for a couple of weeks . Still a lot to do but I’m getting there . I had no idea that anything like this was ever built .

That's just put the needle on my weird-o-meter into the red! Love it!
It's the kind of design the Germans would call a 'Schnappsidee' - an idea you come up under the influence of alcoholic beverages.

You have your way. I have my way. As for the right way, the correct way, and the only way, it does not exist.

Right, so this was converted from a "Family Weekend" sized Vodka Barrel?

P.S. You've heard about the Irishman who drowned after falling into a vat of Guinness? It took him all day to do so, it would probably have taken less except he had to keep getting out to relieve his bladder....

Glad you're bringing these guys back to the surface Dan. Maybe they'll show up at some point. It'd be good to have 'em back.
