This level is for those who have tried to build a model ship before, or perhaps one of plastic. These models also have a simple construction, though you will meet a number of ’challenges’ on the way! When three men met in early 1949 at a Seattle sailboat shop, none of them could have foreseen the peculiar & far-reaching consequences of their joint venture to build a better race boat. Slo-mo-shun IV was indeed better than any previous race boat. But she was more than that: Slo-mo IV touched the hearts of thousands who cheered her on & changed forever the way generations of Seattleites feel about the first week in August. Slo-mo IV transformed the lives of those most closely associated with her, nearly destroying some of them. She evoked thrills & anger &, ultimately, she prompted tears & inspired poetry.
