Go to the Maas, en take a pic of what is going by.... We can't google your pic, and we have to do it just by the looks of it. (make sure you make a note of the name yourself ) Jan

Hi Piet, Probably you already know, but do you have the pics of O19 and O20 that are on maritiemdigitaal.nl? http://www.maritiemdigitaal.nl/index.cfm?event=search.getadvancedsearch&database=&needimages=false&searchterm=&allfields=&title=&keyword=&creator=&collection=&shipname=O%2019%2C%20Hr%2EMs%2E&invno=&museum=&startrow=1 Jan

Looks like Scharnhorst Jan
-
Because both ends of the rope should turn in the same direction (and in the same rotation speed). Not usiong a gear and attatchinhg the crank on the 'rope-holding tube' itself will cause the rope to twist. Jan
-
I guess it's a rather small vessel. perhaps coastal, perhaps even under gt 10000. Jan
-
very little to go on. Hazy picture, no background, rather standard design. Even no names visible in the pic... Jan
-
How did I miss this one? Amazing work, up to the usual Dafi-standards. Jan

HMS Sloop Jan
-
That's very convincing. Looks like the real one! Jan
-
I'm pretty sure it's not a guess btw I like the Dutch church. Jan
-
Adrieke thought he made it difficult to google the pic
-
Google an image.We can't disqualify you, as it is not against the rules. However, what's the fun of it ? Googling makes it easy (unless Andy is putting up his home made pics of lakers that are already gone to the breakers yard by now) Jan

Masts and funnel fit the Ormuz, the white band at the bow does noet.... There are alos a number of white-star ships that have this "four mast+onefunnel"-configuration. hmmm..... Jan
-
Or a pilot cutter...... Jan
-
Could be an old icebreaker.... Jan
-
Would never have guessed Jan
-
I don't think it's iron .... Some kind of seed? Jan
-
Could be a Leda-class frigate.... Can't find the pic Jan
-
I already had the feeling that it was tiny..... Jan

Another Friesland.. I'll be following this one with great interest. Frieslanbd is based on the Hohenzollernmodel. That particular model is fairly well documented by Heinricht Winter. There is a nice book (in German) around of this model (the model itself didn't survive through the last war) The kit has some minor and larger mistakes in it, but genenerally speaking it is a nice example of a Dutch warship of the era. The whole historic blabla of Mamoli is nonsense. There never was such a ship names Friesland (and the Friesland that existed was of different build than this ship). Nevertheless, a kit worth building. (I did hesitate long in choosing between Prins Willem and Friesland, and I finally went for PW. Unfortunatedly, my house is far too small for two of these large models.....) Jan

Just to get the dimensions right: has your green cutting mat a centimeter- or an inch-grid? (the 'direct' question is ofcourse: how wide are the separate parts of the sail?) Jan
-
I guess you're right. Jan
-
But the colour of the hull and the number of masts are correct You have to go a bit to the south: Adrieke is/was/used to be Flemish Jan
-
Danmark is two mast square rigged, this one is not.... and Adrieke is not Danish Jan
-
There is quite a lot on all kinds of Dutch ships, but most of it is in Dutch. Google Van Beijlen (or alternatively Van Beylen) and you'll see quite a lot coming up on botters, hoogaars and other Dutch ships. Jan
