well after don't know how long have got my portgarth finished.so this weekend got the spendrift off top of the wardrobe washed the hull of the cobwebs to make a start.have had this kit for some years but never got around to starting it.have got the model boats with the review and build by allan miller.know this is not going to be a straight forward build so will be asking some things when I go wrong.
