I've now had a change of plans, deciding to sell 4 kits & a part-built one. With my build (50% scratch) of 'Le Superbe' being so time-consuming & turning 79 in 6 months time, & with 3 part builds to complete (maybe/maybe not) & I'd like to do a Victory! I have taken the plunge & bought the Caldercraft Victory, delivered yesterday - ain't it heavy! - and a decent discont, courtesy of Cornwall M B.
Therefore I have listed the following kits:-
OcCre Nuesta Senora del Pilar @ £375 BIN on ebay (Poohbar 10)
OcCre Erebus £165 ,, Still factory sealed in 'cling film'. (Glad Wrap)
OcCre Dos Amigos - US schooner £145 '' Now discontinued Kit.
Panart HMS Victory £399 Recent kit with copper hull-plate tiles.

Coral HMS Victory part built £ 75 planking done - some ports need cutting out.

All plus shipping or local collection.

Thank you, Rob. It was a simple decision, the way I looked at it was, had I still had a car it would have cost me the kit price in tax & insurance. Having hung up my steering wheel 2 years ago, I'll get more enjoyment out of building 'Her', than I would have driving on our crappy roads, & conditions.

Hey there, just wanted to let you know, I received the kit from you, but I couldn't remember your handle. Was going to let you know awhile back. It all got here ok, and I did a quick check. Looks like you had taken a lot of notes that will help a lot. Thanks again. Looking forward to completing it in the future.

Thanks, Peter, it will need more TLC work on the hull. I have made a stencil for the gunports, from card (enclosed with it). For some unknown reason (?), the spacing of the gunports aft of midships didn't work out, I blocked them out, sanded off the wales, re-skinned, I started fitting new wales & re-positioning & cutting out 'new' ports, hence the stencil. Also needed will be some scratch work on the hull 'decorations', replacing the crappy 'pressed' sawdust ones in the kit (they crumble in your fingers when trying to trim them.)
