The wench helps, but I find her pretty easy to get in eBay lots. I've
got two 6250s and don't really have a desire to get more. Had it had a
center section of course I would have been buying them up as fast as
6280s. If I had a little more luck with separating the deck from the
hull on the bow and stern pieces, I'd be interested in a few more for
more color combinations (brown and green would look nice as would white
and green, and what the heck, why not dark grey and green - which also
lets you have an all black ship...)
