buying just a hull.
« on: June 04, 2012, 03:38:38 pm »

Hello all.

Do any of you guys know if it possible to order and buy just a hull of the model boat you want to build in wood. Just say for instance a lobster boat hull, then i could build the superstructure
myself. :-)
thanks bruce74.

Yes there are a number of model shops or model hull builders about, models by design is a good bet for that type of hull

It's very rare to find a kit of a film boat named as such, especially one from a blockbuster - the studio usually has a bunch of copyright layers looking to justify their existence.  Finding out the type (make, model, etc) and building one of those is another matter.  Some discussion on here - http://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showthread.php?t=959395
