Another scale for sale.
This is a Phil Thomas Scale that I received in a trade. I have never run the boat.
The good: Level of detail is some of the best I have ever seen. The cockpit and dummy engine are awesome. I have never seen a dummy engine to this detail. All of the hardware is anodized black and has been barely used. Paint job above the waterline is very good. Sponson bottoms were not correct when I got the boat and the angles were off. My dad took the boat and made everything straight again with the proper 3 degree angle of attack and dihedral. Anyone that has seen his work knows it is top notch. It also has tape on hatch covers on the bottom to access the fuel tank and to be able to get to the water lines easier.
The not so good: Bottom of the boat when I got it had issues with paint peeling and due to the issues with the sponsons will need to be repainted. There is a small blemish in the deck that needs to be touched up. (See Pic)
The stand for the boat is a concourse winner alone, but I would not want to ship it because it is very heavy.
$500 plus shipping. Can be delivered to Mt. Vernon next week. Still too many boats and I lost interest in this one, that is why I'm selling.
