something different. an old lady's husband died & she came into the wife's office for death benefits. turned out he had about 100 old (60's, 70's) sailing ships un opened & unbuilt. she was going to sell them to pay for a headstone. my wife found where she could get more money & not sell his models. she was so happy she came back the next day & gave my wife a 1974 model sailing ship frigate USS United States.
it's taken me a year to get most of the hull done. there's 5 decks & it's a slow go. if the old lady is still alive when i get it done, i plan on giving it back to her. she complained about the space they took up & how he never built one
