1/30 scale Billing Boats

Charles Daigneault
Victoriaville, Quebec, Canada

“This model started life as a 1/30 scale Billing Boats fishing cutter,” Charles says. Inspired by the TV show “The Sea Hunters,” he modeled a fishing boat being converted to a research vessel. “The main diving rig is a Neufeldt and Kuhnke atmospheric diving suit, 1930s vintage,” he says.

Beautiful. Just beautiful. What an inspiration, time to go out to my shop and dust off my Cux 87 and finish it. It's been static too long.
