  3. Ah, you think we can't find out that this isn't a car transporter, nor a roro ship of any kind. It's just somthing else. Don't think I can't find her. Something to do with a bow? Jan
  4. Mind you: well into the 17th century there was no 'national' navy: both admiral;ity (navy) as VOC (and for a short period WIC) where organised on a regional level (the VOC called them 'kamers' (chambers)). There was coordination within the regions, and very little between them. The flags used may not be as standardized as we think they were. The same with respect to colours: there has been no standar colours well into the 19th century. ONly then the standard colours were defined. Don't pay too much attention to red, orange and anything in between...... Jan

  14. And I posted the edited version, Yeah, I think I will be OK this time. But I feel kind of stupid: investing time for a nice ship to show, and forgetting to double check on the visibility of the name..... Jan
  15. Next try. I don't see any names on this one. Jan
  16. I always do that: edit out the name, and post the unedited one Jan
  17. This one is not difficult (certainly not for Dutch children ) @Anja: I want her real name! Jan
