Being charitable isn't about fobbing off defective crap on children.
(that's what toy stores do).
A local scout troop rebuilt a 38 foot sailboat. An A scow, all of
which were used and wood at the time. Since then the scows are back in
production and in fiberglass, but at the time all the available A
