    All
    I am selling some of my unfinished projects. Some are just fiberglass hulls with plans and main turret covers.
    Others are some of the used boats that I have ended up with and don't have time to get going again.

    First is a French super-destroyer Mogador hull-kit. 1/144th scale.
    Battler's Connection sells this kit. However. This particular fiberglass hull was one of the last of the Ralph Coles hulls to come out of Canada.
    This kit comes with the fiberglass hull, main armament turret covers, and plans.
    I am asking 100.00 plus shipping. IMG_0236.JPG

    The Mogador class super-destroyers are one of the easiest classes of destroyers to build in the hobby due to their large size, and heavy weight.
    And being French, they can battle on either team.

    Next ship for sale is a Richelieu class French battleship fiberglass hull, with main turret covers, and plans.
    Strikemodels sells a kit for this ship. But this particular fiberglass hull was one of the last from Ralph up in Canada.
    The hull has some slight flaws in the gel-coat that can easily be worked around when marking and cutting the windows.
    The Richelieu class battleships are awesome ships that have lots of staying-power due to their hull volume, and lots of hitting power due to their dual-firing side-mounts. And being French, they can battle on either team.
    I am asking 165.00 plus shipping.
    This ship is no longer for sale.

    Next ship is Dustin's old Richelieu class battleship.
    I am pretty sure that the fiberglass hull came from Ralph up in Canada, and although the ship was originally built for big-gun, the windows were cut to Treaty/fast-gun rules. And the ship was last used in Treaty, so she is sheeted with 1/32" balsa.
    Sperstructure is very light-weight. and the main barbettes are slightly over-sized (for big-gun).
    She comes with plans, and a set of main turret covers that Dustin made the mold for. Shafts are installed as well as water-channel.
    I am asking 225.00 plus shipping.
    This ship is no longer for sale.

    Next ship is Bat's old Richelieu class battleship.
    I am pretty sure that the fiberglass hull came from Ralph up in Canada.
    And I am thinking that this is the Richelieu that Bat took to the 2006 IRCWCC nats and won rookie of the year with and went un-sunk for that event. It was also a big part of the Buckeye Battle Squadron fleet at that time. This ship was a big part of the Treaty fleet over the last several years as well, and has seen a lot of combat.
    My son Vance, and I ran a pair of these two brutes together for a couple/few years in the Midwest Naval Combat Club, and we felt comfortable loaning them out to the new folks. IMG_0239.JPG IMG_0240.JPG IMG_0241.JPG IMG_0242.JPG
    A nice addition to anyone's fleet as it has the hitting power, and staying power to take on the big ships at any event, and as it is French, it can battle on either team.
    This one comes with plans, and the superstructure is intact. Shafts and rudder is installed. It does need to be re-sheeted.

    Next ship is my old Jean Bart.
    This fiberglass hull came from Ralph up in Canada, and was originally going to be built as a big-gun ship in the old Midwest Battle Group as the Jean Bart. But shortly after starting construction on her, the rules in that club changed allowing the Alsace class battleships to be built. So I cut the fiberglass hull in half, and added the extra length, and started the conversion. But after attending a couple get-togethers with that group the future was not looking so good, so I took out the extra length and started a refit back to the original Jean Bart configuration.
    The ship was finished and participated in some battles with the Buckeye Battle Squadron in early 2005, and did well. I then took the boat to the 2005 IRCWCC Nats, and was picked to be the allied flagship. The ship went un-sunk during that exciting event in which the allies were victorious. The first allied Nats victory in several years, and I believe, the last in that club.
    This ship was again the allied flagship at the 2006 IRCWCC Nats. And although the allies did not win that event, the ship again went un-sunk during the event, and won most-feared allied. Also some award for lots of damage without sinking.
    In recent years this boat was the other part of the Richelieu team that I ran with my son.
    These boats are big and fast, and can take lots of damage. They can really put the hurt on their opponents with the dual side-mounts.
    Perhaps the most powerful boat that I have ever run. Very forgiving. And being French, they can battle on either team.
    This ship comes with plans, and is an empty hull with superstructure. It has shafts, rudder, internal armor, and water-channeling installed.

    Next ship is Matt's old Bizmarck / Tirpitz.
    I think Matt got this ship from Roland, but I am not sure.
    Last seen battling in Treaty.
    This is a fiberglass hull, superstructure is mostly intact. Needs a couple barbettes, outer shafts, and rudders.
    Inner shaft, internal armor, and some water-channeling is installed. I do not have plans with this ship, or main turret covers.
    Asking 225.00 plus shipping.
    This ship is no longer for sale.

    Next ship is Dustin's old Sverige in 96th scale. This is a Battlestations boat.
    Dustin built this ship out of wood, and did a very nice job on it.
    I think it may have achieved the first sink in Battlestations here in Ohio, when it helped sink my Strasbourg.
    This is a used mostly empty hull, with partial superstructure (including main turret covers).
    I do not have a plan set for this boat.
    Asking 175.00 plus shipping.

    Up-date.
    The 96th scale Sverige is no longer for sale. It has a new home.

    Next ship.
    I am interested in selling my 96th scale Battlestations Mogador.
    Here are my asking prices for the ship.
    The ship is combat-ready with a single 50 round BB cannon in the bow.
    Ship ready to go with radio (DX6I)... 525.00
    Ship ready to go without radio...400.00
    Ship without internals....200.00

    This Battlestations ship was originally started by me. Then was finished by Dustin.
    It is one of the best looking ships in the Battlestations fleet (my opinion) and is a pleasure to run.

    If the boat needs to be shipped, then I ask that the buyer pays shipping.

    Up-date. This ship is no longer for sale.
