LIMITED EDITION KIT #2

ONLY 100 Boatworks Available

Does your layout need a Boatworks waterfront kit? The R.G. Shinnie Boatworks is named after Greg Shinnie the kitbasher who created the first prototype. Greg captured the feel of a waterfront/wharf scene that could be classified as a classic design.

The kit contains the following parts and innovations:

Clapboard Siding (also included are enough wall shakes to completely cover the building … if you are after a more prototypical marine building)

Customizable boat door openings are laser scribed on the wall sections to add variety and choice for the modeler. (NOTE: you can have upto 3 large boat door openings)

Dormers can be placed in different locations.

Wharf construction is made simple with a laser cut jig to hold pilings in place while you assembly 4 x 10 bracing and 2 x 8 deck bracing.

Resin & Metal Castings (12 seagulls {you gotta have seagulls by the shore}, a big tuna {the boat builders occasionally cast a line in the water when they test out the boats}, steam winch, 3 lightening rods, brick chimney, 2 smoke jack vents, gas pump, cleats, fire hose, life buoy, various barrels and crates to add a cluttered feeling.

A one piece cast resin block foundation supports the Boatworks. It is easily cut and modified when choosing you large boat door openings.

Laser etched fence jig on the back of the wooden cigar box the kit comes packed in. Enough scale fencing to create 50 scale feet of fencing.

Roofing is a combination of laser cut random shakes and corrugated metal. The roof panels are laser scribed with lines to guide you as you lay your random shakes.

Also included is a covered out building that can be located away from the structure or attached to the main building.

Full Steam Ahead’s great colour photos, instruction book and weathering tips and techniques.

Remember, you get your limited edition kit in a wooden box that is individually numbered and customized just for you.
