That is one beautiful looking ship, Sjors. Very nice! -
Looks good - very generous of you to provide the passengers with such luxury!
-
But will she fit on the shelf next to the paddlewheel mortar carrying behemoth or Sjors' quadrupel decker 174 gun floating fortress?

Looking really good there, Sjors. Onto the larboard (port) side next!
-
Congratulations, Barnacle Bill - that is, indeed, the "real" vessel in the picture. That was quick! Your Turn!!!
-
oops...wrong one! My wife sent me that one to practice my rigging on...she thought it would be easier since there are no shrouds... Try this one out!
-
Thanks - try this one out.
-
USS Amphitrite (BM-2)?
-
Love the originals - and it certainly makes things more challenging which, I guess, could be considered "Fun" Sure do need to dig a lot deeper! Who would have ever thunk there were that many red freighters on the St. Lawrence and Great lakes?????
-
Well, it is an Andy original photo, probably a laker...
-
Looking sharp, Popeye! The eyebolts work well there - nice recovery!
-
The mast looks good - now where is that box hiding....
-
Off to a good start on the deadeyes, Sjors - very nice! And pictures, too! What a treat to wake up to this morning! Thank you - have a great day!

Hmmm...methinks thou art mildly excited by the delivery, perchance? How long before that temptation to "just peak" becomes overwhelming, then progresses to "I'll just do an inventory", which inevitably is followed by "Maybe I will do some test fitting while I wait for glue to dry"....... It is inescapable...the smell of new wood, a new set of plans, that girl on Christmas morning reaction. Yep, you are done for!!!!

I agree with Mark - y'all need to build this yawl! The Admiral has spoken, you have a very good correlation in that set of plans - have a blast! If this turns out at all as great as the Spray it will be worth watching from here in the cheap seats!
-
Looking very good, Dave - this is a nice looking vessel!
-
Coming along very nicely, Jared! Thanks for posting these!
-
Looking very good so far, David. beware the bear, though...rumor has it that Mike Row (of Dirty Jobs fame) is currently holding an eBay auction for, of all things, polar bear poo....
-
That was a tough one to ferret out - well done, Jan!!!
-
I have been away for a while and just got the chance to go through this log again - all I can say is "Wow"! VERY nice work, and it is so nice of you to let Sjors use the kitchen!
-
Guess I need to face up to the challenge of planking that hull...have been putting it off for "a few" months now... Dang - that shipyard there must be getting pretty crowded about now!
-
Not sure the cannons from the HL would be any match for that mortar Jim used on his....
-
This looks to be an interesting build - a very strange scale, but guess that's what you get for buying an old kit? Nice recovery on the repair job - look forward to watching this one progress.
-
Looking good, Augie - look forward to seeing them on the masts! Enjoy your (hopefully) final snowfall of the year!
