The kit has beautifully detailed plastic. Dry fit and thinking about how this build will go..

The Tetra Model Works PE set adds some good detail. I think I ended up using most of the set.

I modelled the sea surface by sculpting the foam a little with a hot wire, covering with wrinkled kitchen foil and then covered again with tissue + Mod Podge to give finer 1:700 detail. The finish is multiple layers of Mod Podge gloss sprayed with selection of greens, blues and greys to build up a little sense of depth.

Final effects being applied to the sea - wake made of cotton + gel + highlighted with acrylics. A stippled gel coat was later applied to break up any parts of the the sea surface that were too flat or regular.

I used some cotton wool left to set in gel to model the bow wave. Matchstick for scale!

A simple bass wood frame makes for a tidy presentation.

Clear Acrylic Display Box 20x12x9cm is great for dust protection but terrible for photographs😉
