[Background Information]
The Botter is a Dutch sailingboat mostly used for fishing that was designed in the second half of the 18th century. Its unique hull design allows the Botter to sail through the shallow waters of the Dutch Zuiderzee.
This is by far my most detailed and complicated build yet and in my personal opinion my best to date.
Hope you enjoy it and have a nice day!

Hey, message me on hangouts when you see this!
This reminded me of Queen Anne's Revenge, So beautiful.
Also great to see you back dude!
A truly beautiful boat.... Lovely curves, remeber that boat competition.... Hmm is a re run possible with the new parts added over the past year...
Beautiful!
is it possible that i may have died and gone to heaven, because I can't believe I'm seeing something this good!
love how the boat leans as the "wind" picks up!
@Benkelmans Nice!
Woah!
@Benkelmans Yes it is!
At least I am not the only madman who botheres with some of these extreme rigg details ;D
Wow nice work teus! Nice to see your still building.
@BaconEggs ¡que una coincidencia!
How could I go past this without a spotlight and an upvote?
@Johndfg I was just about to say that..
This is incredible! The amount of detail is crazy
Muy bien
@TheLatentImage I'm not sure if this might sink in real life - wood it?
This is awesome man, looks and performs great. I like the level of detail as well, it looks like it was put together with planks. Well done.
