wow, so much to look at and comment on. The damage to the wisky is incredible. It's amazing that the eaton didn't sink! It seems to me that somebody wasn't paying attention to cause an accident like that. It's nice to see the photo's of the Z boats too. Doc, the Z-boat in the photo of three ships "docked together" that's in the middle looks to be much like the one I'm building. The part that I'm working on now is the most fun. I really enjoy adding the details like deck railings, ladders, rigging etc. The archive photo's I got are really good and should help me along a great deal in adding the detail. I don't know what you all prefer to build but I would much rather build a wood kit. This one is a glass hull with plastic superstructure. The one advantage I can see is saving all that time glassing or finishing in some way to hide the wood grain. I'm really enjoying this thread, there is so much cool stuff out there to see. Here's a couple shots of the z-boat I'm working on just to show some of the great detail possible.
