You are in the right place for any assistance you may need during your build, as there are loads of very experienced ship builders on this forum.

If you keep a build diary up to date, then should you need assistance people in the know will be able and willing to assist.

Welcome keith,
as others have said there is a lot of expertise on the forum and we are a very friendly bunch so feel free to ask away if you have any questions.The instructions for the Victory are excellent but I am sure you will have questions.

Welcome in!

Alan (Gandale) is our resident ship model expert, but many others will be able to support you. I think you’ll find that the directions are written in such a way that you’ll find you don’t have as many questions as you might think you will. The one, single most important thing for you to remember is that tha ONLY dumb question is the one you decide NOT to ask. The Victory is one of the most popular subjects out there. You’ll find a huge amount of info in all of the build logs regarding her.

Have fun!

Thank you all for the kind responses...Build is underway and about to start the planking process...all good so far with no real issues. I am liking the instructions provided...combine that with the various build videos going about and im confident with what im doing! Hopefully that continues !
