I recently visited the Mary Rose Museum in Portsmouth and I was really impressed by its history and the lengths the trust has gone to to preserve the very old and weathered remains. I've been looking for a suitable Mary Rose kit to build and I haven't had any success in finding one as yet. Will you ever offer a MR kit in this shop, or if not, could you please suggest where I'd be able to find one?

You could just make one-half of it - for half the money of course !!!

The Mary Rose shop sells the excellent Caldercraft kit which reflects the latest research, the kit contains a registration card which if you fill in they will send you any updates to the kit if yours is not the latest edition, same applies to several in their range like HMS Victory or HMS Mars.

The Caldercraft Mary Rose is a very good kit as are all their period ships, but the instructions tend to be a bit brief,so to do a good job you need to have built one before or have read the Keith Juiler book on Period ships as advertised in the Model Boats amgazine and on the web site my hobby store.
