I have spoken to Michael about this project a few times. They are really nice models. And would look really good on everyone's Mantel. Only problem is price and getting the wife to Agree to put it on the Mantel..... Good Luck selling them. I really want one.....

Scale is one to one....the real boat was 32 feet the model is 32 inches.

Price is going to be $2,500 each for a limited run of just 25. All models will be numbered and will be signed by Michael Aronow.

So far, numbers 1, 6, 7 and 13 have been spoken for...if you have an interest and anumber you want, let us know ASAP.

Compare this cost to what you spend on a poker run weekend. And this will only go up in value in the future.

Below is a photo of a guy that really liked his model...think of how your own numbered and signed model will look in your office or den.

I'd really love to have one, but $2500 is out of my league for a model boat.
