Review: a must buy, even as adults! (myself and 65 year old dad!) - Highly recommended. Not being familiar with model making, I was concerned that the age rating would just make this boat fairly simplistic and we'd put it together in an afternoon. Oh how I was wrong! I originally bought this in October 2021 for my dads birthday for us to spend some time together. First thoughts was "Wow" when I picked the box up to wrap up - this box is substantial! Whilst we haven't completed this model as yet, we very quickly realised the absolute genius of the design of these parts / high quality of the wood used. To put this into perspective, each of the parts will all come apart fairly easily if you've made a mistake, but will go back together as well as the first time. Needless to say this has happened more times than I care to remember, and none of the parts have failed us yet. Ugears have done a superb job with manufacturing all the parts, and we will definitely be purchasing another kit (once we get to the end of this one!). Would recommend this to anyone!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Looks very good!
*by A***Y on 12 October 2021*

The only reason I have given this model 4 stars is simply because it is a gift and has not been given or opened yet. This looks amazing and I hope the recipient will think so too. After Christmas and model has been started on I will update my review.
