It’s a model kit of a kayak kit, a 1” = 1’ scale model of the Chesapeake 17 touring kayak. You’ll recognize Midwest Products; for years they’ve been producing model kits for the Mystic Seaport catalogue, WoodenBoat Store catalogue, and many others. The model kit includes laser-cut Bass and Birch parts, including bulkheads and coaming, teensy tiny sheer clamps, scaled webbing and bungie for deck rigging, and an elaborate instruction manual. While the construction doesn’t follow the full-size kayak exactly, it’s a pretty fair representation. Great as a gift, as a winter project, or as a handsome decoration for the mantelpiece to complement the fleet in the garage.
