    P.S. What was the idea with the bow mounted diving planes? It appears it didn't work out as it was not repeated........

    Hi David,

    Couple of things. Hope you are feeeling better, saw on another thread you weren't 100%, best wishes from this side of the world.

    At 1/96 I'm guessing around 53 inches, looking forward to the forward dive plane set up in that nose.

    Assembling a 1/96 WEBSTER kit

    I've had this excellent SSY LAYFATTE class 1/96 model kit for over a decade. Got it about 80% done then had to drop the project as I got more involved in the business side of this activity.

    In the interim I've been using the hull and sail as painting and weathering mules. Now with the October NC 'fleet-run' coming up -- an event for only 1/96 and 1/100 scale model boats -- I thought I would finish this beast. Configured as my old ride, the DANIEL WEBSTER -- with bow planes -- I'm about ready to install the SD and get this beast wet.
