Suddenly I'm thinking of The Hitch Hikers Guide to the Galaxy.... But I'm not sure why that is... ANdy

It's happened to me as well...

Sorry... Wayne beat you by 4 minutes...

I had been reading some old industry magazines on board and there where a few articles about her disappearance, and when I was looking for a ship to post, I didn't know it, but I had taken a picture of her in 2007. And then a light went on in my head... then an evil laugh... Andy

DIngdingdingdingdingding! You got it!

Not a Maersk Boat...
-
No.. sorry... not her either... and since you guys are trying so hard I'll give another clue... The photo was taken in 2007.. two years before her "incident" Andy
-
Nope... sorry.. not her either... Like I said, this one made international headlines. There's a clue in the photo...... Andy
-
No.. Sorry Anja.
-
Hrm.... two Andys at the same time.... had me confused for a second.... Andy

Don't worry Sjors, we all fully understand. I hope we haven't crossed a line somewhere, it's all meant in good fun. Take all the time you need. Just remember that when I'm at work, I can't to a d*** thing for months... and well.. you can imagine how that feels. (I'd insert Mr Wacko smiley.... but I don't have one...) Andy

Sorry Sarah, not her. Jan, as long as I keep seeing guesses I know I haven't broken the game. I know I had to double chack a couple of times, just in case, they are very similar ships. Andy
-
Sorry.. no correct guesses yet... and the photo is in Canadian waters.... yeah.. the St. Lawrence can get pretty hazy in the summer. Jan.. if you look, closely, you'll notice the mystery ship does not have paired cranes... and the topping lift is hydraulic, not cabled. Andy

Next kit suggestion???? moved by moderator
realworkingsailor replied to Rich_engr's topic in Wood ship model kits
Why not the Confederacy? Same scale, but a slightly larger (just a bit ).... The Fly/Pegasus and Syren kits are also very well done, maybe also look at some of Caldercraft's brigs... Andy -
Absolutly fantastic rigging work. Although I'm a bit cross eyed trying to follow along... I think I need to go buy a few books on the subject before I do anything foolish on my Pegasus.... don't want to end up mummified in rigging line... (as we are predicting our good friend Sjors may become... ) Andy

Very nice, tidy work you've done up to now. I can't wait to see more, keep it up Andy

Sweet, love the colour of the wood. Looks brilliant. Andy

OK..... this is a good one.... (I hope)... and it's not a laker... She made international headlines a few years ago... Andy
-
Um... Mathew, replica Andy

St George got it! Whew.... didn't break the game... Build in Collingwood Ontario in 1948. Towed to Industrial Marine Salvage, Port Colborne, ON October 2012 Andy
-
Very nice, she's coming along well. Can't wait to see the start of your second planking... Andy
-
One thing at a time... Go do a Syren build.... you could probably get a bit of practice with the castings that are included in the kit.. enough to learn on, but not so much that you'd be overwhelmed. And from what I've seen, they're fairly good quality castings, so even if you're not happy with your first attempts, you'll still have a sharp looking build. BTW, I'm pretty sure you can get some fine carving burrs from Lee-Valley tools... Andy
-
Heh heh heh Just checkin'... hadn't seen a guess in over 24 hours... Andy
