What to do with a Damaged Cutty Sark.......

In the album, i have pics from the early days, will post more as I set up the rigging.

From the title lone, my first thought was to chop about 4" out of the center of the hull, and rebuild her as a packet clipper. My other thought would be to find another kit and salvage the center 3" or so of the hull, and stretch the new kit and build her as a generic barque or barkentine. If only dismasted, I'd be tempted to engage in some surgery to render a transitional steamer , with masts and a screw; or sidewheels.. CS would be good for this as the gaffs are there already

that's pretty cool big jake , got me to thinking , of a dio , with it at the bottom of the sea and all the marine life around it .
