WHAT'S NEW?
As most of you know, we have built a New Bulletin Board. The reason for this board is to give modelers a board that is for All Boat Modeling questions. We support Warship Models Underway and also Model Warships. Both of these specialize in Model Warships. For those interested in other varieties such as Tugs for example, there is no forum for them until now. We invite you to take place in all Model Boat Forums to benefit yourself and others in the hobby.

WHAT'S COMING ?
As many of you already know, we have suppliers across the globe that we work with to bring you as much variety as possible. We have just partnered with a Kit/Fittings Manufacturer in Germany and a Hull Molder in Holland. (More details next month). In addition, we have also made arrangements to co-develope New Hulls and Semi-Kits. Even with all of this effort, there are still hundreds of projects that could be developed. Looking forward - we we are projecting openings in the various schedules we have established. New projects could be slid into these openings so we would like to take a poll of our customers to see what would be popular. There has been some recent interest in the Great White Fleet and others have mentioned the various Revenue Cutters. However, we would be interested in your thoughts and what YOU would like to see produced. Those with the most votes will find their way into the schedule. Thank you for your help.
