When it comes to model boats, there are a few things that are generally considered.
First is the scale. Wooden boat model kits come in various scales, from 1:48 to 1:1000.
The second is the detail. These models can be accurate, down to the smallest of details.
The third is the materials used. Most wooden boat model kits are made out of wood, but there are also plastic and metal versions available. Fourth is the construction process.
