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.

Default Victory Repair

Good Afternoon all:
I have a person that has a scratch model of the "Victory". She says it was done by her father from original wood from the repair of Victory. I don't know if this is true or not. The problem is it needs refiting and probably re-rigging. Is there anyone out there from Canada that would be interested in this repair job?
Please reply to my personal address for further info.

Thanks
Gerry

Hi Gerry,
Would it be possible to post a picture of this Victory?

Hi Gerry,

Most definitely, some pictures would be nice to see to be able to at least give it a preliminary assessment.

I might know someone who's up for a project like that. Just don't know if he knows it! LOL
