Mountfleet's model fishing trawler
the ST NECTAN
I have purchased one of the most expensive self build craft on the market. I would like to show you how I got on. This will be a 'Wharts and all' type of blog, and I welcome any suggestions and corrections as I go along.
There is not much information on this ship, but I have gathered together as much as I can. Starting with the instructions from the builder himself, right down to a write up in Model Boats.
At the present time, I am up to deck level and now on the interesting parts of the build.
I'll start at the beginning by showing the pictures in chronological order.
First we start with the kit box being opened and spread out to see what's ahead. I laid the hull out aginst the Imara to give a flavour of it's size. Yes, it's nearly 6 foot long.
