Hi Gang,

Any you fine folks ever built one and have pictures. BTW, I finished my Cutty Sark and am ready for the IPMS show this weekend. Wish me luck! I’m burning a full set of the pictures ( 78 of them) on CD for the Naplak’s web site to go with the article I wrote.

many many years ago.Fine kit,builds up into a great ship. Just in the process of buying another from member Millard who I learnt has a few for sale.I just had to have one.

[:)]Hi, BJ:

Built one several years ago with exhaustive research[zzz] into rigging and details. Cloth sails and flags, knots as close to those actually used, etc. Thank goodness[bow] I didn’t have to rig ratlines as well. Several plastic kits were issued at one time or another: some were labelled “Xebec”–an alternate designation–and appeared in a few scales with a pretty broad spectrum of accuracy and detail[sigh]. They are fun![swg]
