  1. Thank you everyone for your welcoming messages and words of encouragement.
  2. Hi Folks. After a few weeks loitering in the shadows I decided to join the forum but not before having a read of the odd build and various comments. The subject of period ships is new to me as I predominantly build plastic or resin kits on the black art subject of aircraft, however, I never stand still for long and am always looking for new challenges. I was naturally drawn to aircraft from a young age as I live in Bomber County (Lincolnshire) but I also come from a nautical family, my Great Uncle Harry Watson, Chief Stoker, went down on HMS Hood and my Uncle served on HMS Ark Royal in the 60's and 70's. I also have a second cousin whom served. With this in mind I thought it about time I got my sea legs so I have purchased my first wooden boat kit, and no, it is not HMS Victory😁, I have followed the sage advice of the wise owls that nest here and purchased this; And after looking in the box I am glad I did, much to learn but the instructions are superb and the kit looks superb. I will not build it yet, I have a full bench but I will in the future and with the support of this superb site I am sure it will be a success. Cheers Gary
