Very mean of family to disrupt the model making, Keith, but at least you're making some progress. John

Depends whether you want to go movie or more realistic, Nils. I' think I'd go for the merchant flag (being ex Merchant Navy). John

"Meteor' continues to creep slowly ahead. I haven't had much actual building time as the museum has been pretty busy and I've been spending a lot of time talking ti visitors. I've also been spending time in discussions regarding the new project I mentioned. There have been a few hiccoughs along the way but the 'powers that be' at the museum are now keen to see the project go ahead. There is a (hopefully) final meeting planned for January 19th to finalise matters for all stakeholders. The meeting could have been much sooner, but during the holiday period its difficult to get everybody together at the same time. Here's a photo of the 'Meteor' showing the current state with capping rails rough fitted. John

She looks great on the water. I love the detail work on the deck. John

Can't give you a definitive answer Bill, but have you tried the model railway suppliers? They are often a treasure trove of useful bits and pieces for ship models. John

Fishing boats often used to carry sail as 'steadying sail, so that when stopped with a net down they could trim the sail to turn the boat to the direction they wanted her to lie on the nets. John
