Looking for model schooners in 1/87 or close to that scale. any referals would br greatly appreciated .
I don't know of any models for lumber schooners....BTW...what size/type/era are you looking for?..IE sail, steam?...and are you looking for standard size lumber schooners or "doghole" lumber schooners.
There was a guy on ebay (don't recall the seller) that was selling some very nice ship plan-sets one of which was a for a vertical prow steel hulled "doghole" schooner. I had the chance to look at the planset for this ship, and though a lot of work (especially if not a ship modeler)...it would have made for a beautiful ship......really made me want to build one.

Here is a PDF with some information as to where some plans are available, and some info on a build, for the Lumber Schooner Willapa.

searching with google for logging ships / schooners will give you more detailed info.

Thank you for those great links.. I'm modeling Ho scale and era 1890- 1930 would be fine for timeline of ships. all scooners styles would be fine I need about 7 ships.
7 Ships?!! :o What are planning on doing with so many?
