Cairo Class Riverine Ironclad
Posted by Anonymous on Thursday, October 28, 2004 6:35 AM
Hi Guys I'm baaak. got bitten by a spider,black one with a red GT stripe. Bit sick for a while.
Can anyone tell me where I can find or purchse a set of plans for one of the Cairo class boats?
Scale is immaterial but it must have clear lines.
Thanks Dai

Contact the National Park Service at the following web site. I've toured the boat, man you need to get down to this museum it's very impressive!

I picked up a set from Taubman Plans. Very detailed, covers variances in fit of all ships in the class. External profiles only, though. I ordered mine online ( http://www.taubmansonline.com/ ) but according to the website, it looks like they are not processing orders right now.

I wonder if the plans that Big Jake recommends have internal views? When I do a 1/96th scale build SOMEDAY, I'd like to show some of the gun deck and paddle structure.
