I picked up my boat today. Looking over the instructions, they remind me of Trumpeter's instructions.
Looking over the parts, I found no flash and the deck and hull fit like a glove. I just might have to sneak this into the queue it looks so good. The color call outs are a bit tough to make out, but since we're in theater, I am confident that my Boatswain will be able to come up with some compatible colors.
I take it that no one has produced a PE set yet? However, I believe that I will build this out of the box (with the small amount of PE included), and hope that there is a set when Merit comes out with an "older" version of the 80' Elco.
