  9. BOHUSLÄN swedish live museum steamer built 1914

    back in the 1970`ties there was this wonderfull BOHUSLÄN kit in scale 1:50 launched by Billing boats. I started it without having bought the Fittings kit, so made These myself. The Steamer spent many years hidden in a Celler cubboard till it was finalized in 2009. The lifeboats are Little clinker planked models on Frames themselves, and the Steamer hull was metal plated resemling the rivet structure. The dust protection glass case is also self made

  11. Steamship Heinrich Kayser

    This Steamer was built in 1898 at FSG shipyard in Flensburg / Germany under the Name "Elbing" for account of the German-Australien-shipping Company and she served the German Australian route many years.
    Renamed to "Heinrich Kayser" my grandfather was her captain, when she foundered in 1922, taking all on board down with her in the northwest Atlantic without leaving a trace.
