    Great historical vessel.Congrats.

    While individual boats were often built by local boatyards, the Grand Junction Canal Company played a key role in standardizing and promoting cargo transport on the system.
    Lots of history behind your model.

    Yes shipmates, it's a 1/12th scale model of a standard 53ft cargo carrier. Still a few around the grand union canal.
    Cheers Colin. 👍
