K2 Build Log

I liked the idea of building a wooden boat and chose a kit from Scale Sailing: the Kittiwake K2. Scale Sailing kits include a foam core over which the birch plywood hull is built - greatly simplifying the process. As you’ll see, this condo-dweller lacks a workshop. Im proof positive that Scale Sailing kits can be built without one. The boat is now finished. Here’s a photo build log of the process. The beautiful custom vinyl transfer boat name was ordered from G-Scale Graphics - I heartily recommend them to all model builders. Some pics and a short movie of “Crawdad” (and friends) under sail at the end (thanks, Greg!).
