I really love this rowboat decoration. My grandfather had one just like it when i was a kid and really brought back memories. Its highly detailed and very well made. I have it next to my other nautical decoration on mantle and it fits in perfectly and always brings up good memories about pops. I would definitely purchase from this seller again

The painting job is very nice, but the glue job leaves a little to be desired. The glue is blobby in places, which I can and did sand down, but it did require some manual work. Otherwise it is a GORGEOUS piece that's designed nicely, with cute little accessories on display. It's being displayed up on the mantle next to picture of our lake trips now!

The boat is nice but I was disappointed to find that all of the items are glued down. Not only that, they are glued down sloppily, with lots of globs of glue deterring from the appearance. The finishing on the outside of the boat is fairly well done, but the inside of the boat looks as if a second coat was put on over a first coat while it was still wet.Despite the above problems it is still a nice boat. However, I won't be able to use it with my dolls until I pull the oars off and do some touch up.

This is a model dinghy, at about 12 inches long. It's nicely constructed and painted, and there are accessories glued to the boat: two oars, a life-preserver ring, a lobster trap, and some netting. It really looks good: only from very close is the slight clumsiness of the glue-placement visible.As an aside, I use this rowboat as a "ship" for my TTRPG games, and it works great. I do want to say that if you use it for other things, there may be a few locations that you may not want to place this 12-inch dinghy.

The detail of this handcrafted rowboat is spectacular. As a matter of fact the inside is so detailed, you may want to figure a way to display it on it's side so people can see what's inside. There are the oars, a fishing net, a crap/lobster trap, some line, a barrel of some sort and a life preserver. It's all really well done. And these items are glued into place so you don't have to worry about them falling out and getting lost. The design of the boat is great too. The framing and skin of the boat along with the seats look very authentic. And it's preserved well with a thick coat of lacquer over everything.
