THE KIT
This model is based on lines drawn by Harry V. Sucher, and representative of the many Crabbing Skiff in use up and down the East coast of the United States, from Cape Cod to Maryland during the 1880’s to the early 1900’s. these sailing workboats were referred to as flat bottoms or “Flat Irons”, due to the characteristic shape of the hull.

Midwest's line of Success Series boat kits are designed and engineered for your satisfaction and success. All of Midwest's Apprentice Series model kits come with the 44-page Success Series Construction Manual, an extensive all English, illustrated, step-by-step manual that makes building a pleasure.

Midwest's Apprentice Boats are modeled after the original boats used in the 1800s and early 1900s. When you build these boats, you will learn real boat building techniques with different types of hull construction such as lapstrake and strip planking. The hull of each boat is built on a frame, just like the real thing.
