Hi,
Thanks for sharing. It's nice to see some other type boats.
Utterly stunning. Great work and thanks for sharing it.
Larry B!!!
You are a man after my fashion. Beautiful work. It was somewhat aggravating to see it though. The Photobucket page kept inundating it with ads. I had a hard time seeing the interior parts you did. I assume they are up the high standards of everything else. AWESOME !!!! T.B.
Great build!
Jim

I keep hitting "escape", but I'm still here.
Fantastic! That's quite a nice model. Really cool subject - well done.
Thanks,
John
Well it's been a long time but I have finished my model of the fire boat LA City No 2 (also known as the Ralph J Scott).
I have just south of 900 hours in its construction. Currently the acrylic display case cover is being fabricated.
I have some photos here for your viewing (forgot how to embed the photo so it's a link). I'm also finishing up a construction and documentation report (right now 160 pages) of boat information, sources and lots of construction photos. If anyone is interested I can email the PDF file when done.
For scale here is a picture of me with the model.
