Agan, this kit comes from the Estate of a fellow modeller. Here we have a beautiful kit of the 1877 Schooner Smuggler by Bluejacket. This kit is 1/4" scale with a length of 33" X 25 1/2" tall when finished. This kit is rated for beginner to intermediate modeller. It has a solid hull which requires a bit of sanding to shape, has britania metal fittings and from what I can tell the kit appears complete and also has some of the best detailed plans and instruction book that I have ever seen.
Now, due to this kit coming from an estate, I can't swear to each and every part being there, but from looking at the parts lis and comparing to the contents I believe it to be pretty complete.
This kit was purchased in 2004 for $240.00 (I have the receipt) and they sell new now for about $284.00.
But the price of this kit is $150.00 + shipping (US sales only) Payable by MONEY ORDER
