"Well worth the time and cost to build"
dijofeu
Woodworking has been a hobby of mine for decades. As I've gotten older, now 83, building wood model boats fits the bill for an old man. The Mississippi Queen paddle wheeler was a challenge......but worth the time required, about three months. I found this Latina model to be well designed, accurate, with good instructions......and fun.

 
"Just the best"
tvdavis1954
I love building wooden ships, as a matter of fact I have 4 going right now 3 of them three masts type and this one. In the 30 or so years of building wooden ships I can honestly say I have had more fun building this then any of them. Everything goes together without a hitch. The plans are top notch and very clear with a complete parts list with lengths of material so no guessing. It has gone a lot faster then I had anticipated, I think because it is so much fun. Everyone that comes in and sees all the ships always go to this one first and ask a lot of questions, so I had to bone up on steam-powered paddle boats. If you are new to this hobby I would recommend this over something with a lot of rigging (which can be very intimidating for a beginner), it has very little rigging, and you don't have to worry about planking issues like getting a strip of wood around the bow.
