Hello everyone. I recently bought this rare and old kit at a flea market.
I'm not sure but it could be a Constructo kit. It is a fishing schooner named Gladys. I don't know if it really existed, although it looks a lot like the schooner Bluenose.
What do you think?
Hello Uwek. I'll keep it in reserve for now. When I start with the rigging of the Santísima Trinidad, maybe I start it, to clear my mind of so many ropes
It is amazing what can be found in the line of model ship kits at garage/yard sales. A few years ago I found a partially started Billings kit of the Cutty Sark complete with the fittings kit for $12. It had a terrible job of planking started on it but all frames were there and the rest of the kit untouched. Lots of times people purchase these kits but don't realize the amount of patients it takes to create a model as depicted on the box cover.
