Chesapeake Bay Flattie – 1:32 Scale Heritage Wood Model Kit

Master the Art of Ship Modeling with the "Success Series" Gold Standard

The Chesapeake Bay Flattie is a call into the world of traditional maritime craftsmanship. Originally designed as rugged, shallow-draft workboats for 19th-century oystermen, the "Flattie" is celebrated for its stable design and iconic silhouette.

Whether you are a seasoned shipwright looking for a rewarding weekend project or a newcomer ready to build your first plank-on-frame vessel, the Midwest Chesapeake Bay Flattie is engineered to ensure a museum-quality finish every time.


What’s Included in Your Kit:

Premium Wood: Laser-cut basswood frames, deck, and hull planking; mahogany trim.

Complete Hardware: All necessary rigging line, blocks (pulleys), and nautical fittings.

Full-Scale Plans: Large-format blueprints for easy part identification and alignment.

Illustrated Guide: Midwest’s legendary 42-pages instruction manual. With step-by-step photos and progress checkboxes, it removes the "intimidation factor" often found in wooden ship modeling.
