Hello Guest! There's a lot to look over, so sit back with a cup of coffee, relax and browse around. We have a great group of ship and boat modelers here, both newbies and old salts, from all over the world. Our goal here is to help each other, without criticism or rebuke. Both newbies and old salts alike can learn from each other. No one has all the answers. Our most basic rule is simple, respect for your fellow members and their opinions. And don't take yourself too seriously! wirewolf (John, AKA - Cap), Forum Administrator

I lived in South Louisiana for fifteen years. This looks exactly like something my Cajun friends would have painted camo and filled with plenty of beer coolers, BBQ grills, and shotgun ammo.... mostly beer :)

Thanks Bill. I am trying to get a hold of some plans. The museum at the Canal Park had a nice drawing in a picture frame but none for purchase. I may need to check with the local library. I think it would make a interesting build.

This is a cutter with 12 guns and several culverines. Supposedly the shipyards build them in two's. One for the smugglers, one for customs. It's about 60*24 feet. It looks a bit like the revenue cutter Resolution.

I have been reading through Deane's Doctrine of Naval Architecture and one of the ships he designed was a Sloop called the "Hunter" of 28 tons, although in much earlier time frame 1673. She had 4 guns and her keel was 44 feet with an 11 foot breadth. How closely do these numbers match the Mamoli version?

Walter,

I have not seen any update on the Wasa for a long time. How's it going?

Always impressed with this quality of modeling. I'm too old for this kind of venture...but starting an Airfix plastic Wasa soon. Forgive me.
