    Hey all,
    long time no post, Ive been extremely busy lately, and with school, no job and training with the real Navy, I have no time or money to put towards this ship anymore. I would love to continue the hobby at another time, but right now, I need the money. I have a Graf Spee hull, cut and with deck/subdeck installed, guns, a radio, a partially installed hardware kit, et cetera. If you are interested, or know someone (especially a rookie, who this boat will be good for) who would, please send me an email (will t 17 at comcast dot net). Thanks,
    Will Thibault (Midshipman hopeful).

    RE: Graf Spee I have some interest, so I am posting the following to help those interested.

    I am located in Connecticut and am willing to send the boat, well packaged via the USPS. All in all, there is a hull (cut to ircwcc regs), a superstructure, fiberglass turrets, a ship-holder, a 5 channel radio, batteries, with a charger, a triple gun set from battlers connection, a 3.5 oz CO2 tank, a regulator, a hardware kit from BC, plands and notebooks detailing what has been done.

    Price is negotiable but Im looking for about $700, seeing as this is most of(95%) of a ship, all new parts and a fantastic hull with great plans.

    Thank you,

    Will Thibault.

    RE: Graf Spee I'm sorry to hear this Boomer. I had been hoping to battle it out with my Des Moines at some point.

    RE: Graf Spee Sorry to see you go...

    Just remember... Hanging out @ the forum is free & you don't need a ship to do it! :)

    RE: Graf Spee Thanks guys, and ill try justin, but the forum is a constant pull towards the hobby, and i cant be distracted from my decision right now. I will of course drop by from time to time and post.
    Also, as a Midshipman hopeful, I dont expect to have lots of time and money in the foreseeable future.
    That said, I cant wait to rejoin,
    Will.
