You prefer oob? Sometimes I wonder...... You could have finished at least four well build (above average, I'm sure) oob's in all your tinkering time. I have to say: I'm still wondering were this mega-project will lead us.... Jan

you flipped her over, cranes are on the starboard side

four sisters, how on earth should we decide which one you encountered .... (she' sbuilding an offshore windmill park, by the looks of it ; ) Jan
-
flip and google Jan

hmmmm... four masted barque, 1880. Lots to choose from Jan

Konstantin, According to wikipedia, Gary's picture shows the 'Duke of Wellington' Jan

I see, research already done. Now we'll wait for the execution Jan

For the record: I mirrored it to gain some time. It is indeed Gelderland as refitted by the Germans into Niobe. Jan

And I didn't even google the picture, I just knew Next one is something completely different Jan

I did a check: in 1970/71/72, Van Beylen did a number of articles in De Modelbouwer (monthly journal issued by the NVM) on building a botter. This series is now (slightly) editied and issued as a booklet by Lanasta. Jan

The book has to be a re-edition of something. Jules van Beylen died in 2000 Jan

golden jubilee, barge, spirit of something, I'll be back in a minute

Ha, Andy-stuff again Jan

I suggest that Dafi will also do a 'cleared for action' version of Vic. Same man but ready for battle. Next there will be a version 'Vic by night', all men in their hammocks (apart from the men of the watch, that is) Jan

'bom apetite"? There's nothing on my plate!!! Cook has to come yet. I presume? Jan
-
The cabin is not found by Google.... There should be hundreds of these around: every line and liner had such pics around. (recently saw quite a bunch of these from the HAL) But perhaps we should consider giving Anja a go, before wandering off in all (albeit interesting) directions? Jan

I still don't understand why mamoli has installed rubbing strakes on the hull. It is completely 'undutch'.... Nevertheless: she's turning into a nice lady! Jan

The round holes in the ice do give it away, otherwise it is just like the real thing! You did not go for a couple of iron-capped mooring poles? Probably you're right: given the size of the ships, that may be overkil Jan

Robbyn, you're outvoted on the paint. On this side of the room we all like the painted version. Jan

I did not know that rubber duckies had a name (it's Dutch btw) Jan

That would be great! If the scale is not in the 1:48 range, I would certainly consider buying. There is a set of drawings around from the Lelystad Werf were they do the replica (Drazen is using that set for building is model of the ZP) btw: this painting is also coming from Lelystad, it is an artist impression of the replica afloat.

Figured that one out after realizing that there was more than one ship involved.... Jan

The present dykes (both height and slope) are not representative for the period you are displaying: after the floods in 1916 and 1953 there were reforms in the design of the Dutch dykes, leading to higher dykes, and less steep slopes. (the so-called deltadijken) These changes affected both river- and sea-dykes. Before the 1916-flood, some dykes were not higher than 3 meters above normal water levels (NAP). Jan
