Gypsy houseboat, and a model of the Coaster (See Customer Photos

Mr. Witt,
I had so much fun building the model of the Coaster, I decided to build a model
of the Chessie Flyer. The Chessie Flyer was my first attempt at building a
Glen-L boat. The boat turned out to be everything I had envisioned and more.
This boat was a lot of fun. My wife, two girls and I took it all over northern
California. Everywhere we went people would come over and inquire about it.
As you can see by the picture in the lower right corner, I made the model so
the roof comes off the cabin to expose the detail of the inner cabin. I made
these 
two models while waiting for the weather to warm up
so I can proceed with the full size Coaster I am building out doors along side
of my home. As of this date, I have the hull framed in and need to do some
minor fairing before attaching the paneling.
