Monday, February 16 2026, is a holiday called Family Day in Canada so I decided to build a lifeboat that a fellow in the boat club gave me. Read over the instructions, and that took a while, and then started building at 11.00 am today, after 1/2 hour stop got two parts built.I am surprised that ModelShipways is still in business It's a real tiny boat.

Garth! I almost picked up two of these from an "old style" hobby store I stumbled into for my giant C-2 Cargo ship. Their scale was just about right, but their age and construction was a bit off for a mid 20th Century ship...I think. Let us know how it goes!
👍😊 PS: Model Expo acquired Model Shipways in 1987. As of 2025, Model Shipways still manufactures kits in the USA for Model Expo and has become the US manufacturer for Mamoli and Dusek kits. Shipways used to be in NJ, but their factory is now in Miami. ▲

Garth,
So ..... you don't celebrate (US) Presidents Day in Canada?? 🤣 Actually, "Family Day" sounds better to me as well. That looks to be a fun project. And, a great way to spend the Holiday, whether it be Presidents or Families. Dave B ▲
