Heh I meant who made the kit that you are making

By getting stuck I mean real life projects (like remodeling bathrooms and kitchens and repairing plumbing disastors) keep you from 'working' on the model.


Yea it does look like a Chris Craft but then again nearly all boats of this type looked like a Chris Craft
