    1:150 German Luxury Liner TS Hanseatic

    Hi all. Just wanted to share my latest project. This thread will be a little low on the verbiage. Mainly just a picture essay.

    Here is what the finished boat will look like:

    .....and it will be lit inside and out, like so:



    .....here is the complete kit and all its goodies:










































    She measures nearly 53" loa. A hefty sized boat.

    I'm challenging myself to get the boat completed in 33 days. I'd like to see it run on Sept. 16th in Rochester.

    You are a maniac....there that is my comment!
    If you can cut, drill, saw, hit things and swear a lot, you're well on the way to building a working model sub.

                  Why? Because you build like crazy fast.....and your timeline on this boat is aggressive! LOL

                    wow she will be definitely be impressive on the water. It takes me 33 days just to organize my shop to work on projects. I ,too, look forward to seeing you and hopefully this project at the run. Who makes this kit anyway?

                          In your first post you mentioned this was a kit. Where did you find it?

                            I do not know where Erich got it, but I see one listed here: https://www.shopssl.de/epages/es1191...ts/B-Hanseatic
                            I think it might be the same one.
