Calling All Crab Boat Fans "Deadliest Catch"

I was watching Deadliest Catch (the Bering sea Crab Fishermen) show and I was "inspired" to build a crab boat.

Should have it finished soon, held up on how to make the crab traps (aka pods).

Window screen, cut flat, folded over a scale-sized frame.

You'd have to figure out the pre-fold shape.

Were you aware that the "Wizard" is a converted AO/AOG vintage 1944-45?. So ISW's USN YO/YOG/YW Yard Barge is an accurate starting point.
