About this boat

Just received new addition to the fleet.
I am a lazy bugger....not a scratch builder....but very impressed after opening the box...all intact...Will look just a treat approaching the shore, dropping the ramp and unloading the Sherman...no troops running ashore with this one. 😎

    Never too old....as long as you have two thumbs, can hold a scalpel blade steady enough, and the inclination then all is good....stay afloat.

    Thanks Ed.......have just added the HMS Resolution to the fleet....Will be some time under construction in dry dock, kept under wraps until sea trials commence.....not just a surface skimmer.....

    Looks a great model, how does she sail?

    Does anyone know if there is a plan for the LCM 8 (US Marine Corps) ? I would like to build one about 30 inch, as per original, and one as per a conversion to a mussel fishing vessel.

    Fair winds......Lemmerhengst

    I really like these craft. I think it will have to be added to my "to do" list as well. That list is getting a bit long now.😊

    Landing craft doing the job for which they were intended are always an impressive sight. An LST is somewhere on my 'to build' list, about number seven I think, hope I manage it before I'm too old
