All is good now. I still dont understand where the LOA is measured for 143' I can move on. So I am debating whether to go with 1/48 length of hull 35 3/4 1/64 length of hull 26 3/4 1/72 length of hull 23.881 1/96 length of hull 17.875 [This is where I am thinking for now..even though I am an old guy, and yes.. still POF] I will scale the drawing at 1:1, same with the frames so that anyone who wishes can use them at any scale. PS.. I am a bit enamored of the techniques of Mr. Philip Reed best! Greetings from Windy and now sunny Virginia who does not need any more rain.. Hope everyone is Fine! Guy | ||

Sometimes you have to think of the smaller scales because of where you would like to put it when you are done with everything. Here in Fla we have not had rain in the last week or so. Seems like lots of folks are getting way to much rain, good luck to those folks. Later Tim | ||

But then, I give my models away so I'm not concerned about where I have to display them. The only model I have kept is the first one I built, but I do plan on building another Bluenose model to keep at some point. | ||
