Loyalhanna Dockyard's website still shows the Saito boat listed which I presume means it is still available but at a heck of a price.

I was told recently by a fellow modeler who contacted Saito, that they have indeed discontinued their Delta Queen kit & will no longer be offering this in their catalog.

This was very helpful as I'm presently watching a Krick Loreley on ebay in AU buy now for $100 plus $47.80 post to me.
After reading of the plastic toy look of the built model I'll give it a miss.

I'm coming late to the party but after the sinking of the Portland, storms of that intensity became knows as "Portland Gales".
