I like those white hulled steam yachts.
I'll be back later, after I've seen a few of them

I think Eamon has other fish to fry in stead of recovering.
He has to find a new ship to show us here.
The brig in my picture was indeed ZrMs Pollux, Dutch Navy Brig.
No real history, so apart from one or two lines in some obscure Wiki-page and this pic there is little to find on her.

Sjors will be happy (as we all are).
Wonderfull detail. It really changes the appearance of your sub into a 'real sub'.

No I used to work in Utrecht, and from work to home I just passed this ship every day (at least, in the winter months).
ANd last year a member on MSW was working on a paper version of the ship, and asked for a couple of pics, mainly of the details of the ship (especially because the scrollwork as build differs from the scrollwork as drawn in the plans)
So I took my canmera to my work, and made a couple pf shots. And as there was someone on deck, I asked for a small tour around the ship.

This is going to be very interesting.
It is also stronger as the wood grain is running in the right direction. Utrecht has frames that are almost square,
so sawing them in one piece will seriously lower their strenght, as at least one parft of the frame is cross-grained.
Are you also adding the frame pieces that are in the 'real ship' to attacht the futtocks to the floor-parts of the frame?
More pics of the build on http://veilinghaven.statenjacht.nl/het_schip/foto.htm (don't change the language to english, or you will loose all the interesting pictures )
And just to show you my pics of the actual replica:

I guess Andy did a search for some obscure laker, going down in a freak gale, leaving only one fuzzy picture of her in some obscure book....

But the spanish alsedo-class (early twenites) has 4 funnels, and not 2
The other class is not early twenties, but does look very, very much like yours.
(or is 1925 still early, in your definition?)

Yes, it is the newest Friesland. I was hoping you would have some problems in finding her.
(There is almost no reference of her under the HrMs abbreviation, and she only in service since early this year.)
