    How is this for a scaled down ship?

    Here are the specs.

    The model is scratch built using 14' bass wood strips & then covered w/fiberglass.
    Estimated weight: 700 lbs
    The beam is 52'
    The length is about 30'
    It can carry 2 persons.
    The model is powered by a 15 hp outboard engine under rear gun turret.
    It can sail 15 mph


    The model also has a built in music system.
    While William Terra cruises the lakes of Maine he enjoys listening to Wagner.
    The Commander-in-Chief in the photographs below is William Terra.

    Construction time: 4 years (so far). It is estimated to require at least 2 more years of work to make the model complete.
