HMS Winchelsea 1764 – By Chuck Passaro

A semi-scratch plank-on-bulkhead project designed by Chuck Passaro, originally developed as a group project with DryDockModeler.com and sold through Syren Ship Model Company before production moved to Portland Scale Ship Co. The kit is built up in laser-cut chapters using Alaskan Yellow Cedar strip wood and bulkhead/keel parts, producing an unrigged 38" model inspired by the contemporary Admiralty model of Winchelsea held at the National Maritime Museum. No printed manual is included; a free monograph/plan set is distributed via DryDockModeler.com, and builders are expected to supplement the chapter kits with their own fittings, blocks, and rigging materials.
