Revell 'Hawaiian Pilot' freighter

How available is that kit now? Is it pretty rare?

I actually picked mine up a couple of years ago at Hub Hobby near you Don. It seems their selection isn’t what it used to be a couple of years ago, but every once in a while a little gem shows up.

It was re-issued not that long ago, so it should be available on eBay, if not still in the stores.

One of my favorite old kits. I remember seeing the real Hawaiian Pilot moored at the C&H Sugar refinery at Crockett, California when I was a kid.

My kit was an old one which wasn’t that hard to find on eBay, nor especially expensive, either. I bought my kit last year for 12.5 British Pounds plus 7 British Pounds postage.

Interesting clip from Great Liners 29. Matson Lines

Lots of film of the Matson freighters as well as the liners.

I got my copy and a fine print of Lurline from
