This was in my father’s inventory until his toy store closed in 1955. There were two Sea Witch kits. One was missing the metal deck parts. I started assembling one 65 year ago, but I wasn’t up to it as a child. At some point, one of boxes may have been damaged, so the two kits were placed in one box. There are two hulls, 2 sets of sails, 2 sets of instructions. Missing the crew and one of the display bases. I saw one broken spar. After 70+ years, the styrene sails are somewhat brittle and may crack. The Hull is approximately 2 feet long.
