1860s wharf boat 1/250 scale waterline.

Here is a wharf boat common during the Civil War. This one is 300 feet long by 60 feet long. The one in the photo I used for a base seems even bigger!

Looks like a big building on a boat.

What a great diorama that would make with ironclads, tinclads or riverboats alongside

Dear List folks:
With the small picture and not looking close I thought "The ARK"
if one floated the othere must have also.
Just a thought,
MILES

Miles, you are on the money I think! They are similar, though the ark would have been much deeper in draft. It is amazing what people have been able to get to float long before the welding torch and diesel engine!
