The Canadian 44 had an enclosed cabin, so for me I've scratched build the cabin and didn't use any of the supplied wood for it.♥ 4 likes305 viewsDumas 1203 Coast Guard Lifeboat (RNLI Waveney conversion)Great project I'm currently doing the same kit, but I also got the Dumas running gear kit with the model. I'll be converting my boat to the Canadian version of the 44' lifeboat (Bamfield Lifeboat).♥ 2 likes305 views(Working Vessel) Linda's LegacyMy first model boat. Was a Christmas gift from my wife.
