Morning Adriaan, Looks good. Just like Anja I want to see those lights! It's complete understandable that you want to finish her first. The CF can wait and so do I.

Dear Suzanne, My deepest sympathy for you ,your family and friends, I know John as an passionated builder with a lot of humour and the will to help anyone who ask for his help.

Hi All, I just received this message from John 46 his daughter Suzanne. I will quote her message here, Sent Today, 09:09 PM Dear forum-friend of John, Forgive me if my english is not correct, but I wil try my best to tell you an important message about my father, John. My name is Suzanne, i am the youngest doughter of John. In the last years i have followed the ship-building projects of my father. It was his life work. He spent many hours on what he so called ‘his shipyard’. With a perfection which I admire, he build the most lifelike scale models I have ever seen. On Sunday the 2th of june, after his holiday, at the age of 67, he unexpectedly passed away. With respect to him and the hours of work he spent on the shipyard, the joy he found in sharing his workprogress online on the forum with his friends, it’s very important to me to tell you this message. Within a few days, I will publish a picture of his last project. Suzanne

I had my medical examination today and the Doctor is saying that I had the health of a man of 25 years old…so from now on, I'm not 56 years old anymore but 25

About the NRG
If you enjoy building ship models that are historically accurate as well as beautiful, then The Nautical Research Guild (NRG) is just right for you.
The Guild is a non-profit educational organization whose mission is to “Advance Ship Modeling Through Research”. We provide support to our members in their efforts to raise the quality of their model ships.
The Nautical Research Guild has published our world-renowned quarterly magazine, The Nautical Research Journal, since 1955. The pages of the Journal are full of articles by accomplished ship modelers who show you how they create those exquisite details on their models, and by maritime historians who show you the correct details to build. The Journal is available in both print and digital editions. Go to the NRG web site (www.thenrg.org) to download a complimentary digital copy of the Journal. The NRG also publishes plan sets, books and compilations of back issues of the Journal and the former Ships in Scale and Model Ship Builder magazines.
