Too bad the builder didn't include any detail...;<)

It's gorgeous!

Sure looks gorgeous! I haven't seen her in person yet. I hope to get down to the museum this wkend. If so, I'll snap a few photos and post here. For those who haven't had an opportunity to visit the Whaling Museum...do yourselves a favor. It's a great little museum. In addition to this Concordia model, they also have the Lagoda, a 1/2 scale model of a whaling ship, the largest ship model in existence.

I love to see models like this, but I think if I were going to dedicate this much time to such a huge one, I would just go ahead and build a full sized version that I could use!
