Prototype ship: Bluenose II
This Billing Boats 600-series kit uses plank-on-frame wooden construction with laser-cut plywood keel and frame components, assembled in two hull halves on a building board for easier alignment before joining. The box includes brass and/or plastic deck fittings, woven cloth sail material, various sizes of rigging cord, and full-size plan sheets with an English-language instruction booklet (metric measurements). Billing Boats rates it as an "Advanced Beginner" level kit — straightforward overall but with some challenging detail work, making it a good introduction to plank-on-frame/plank-on-bulkhead technique.
