I gotta hand it to ya, Denis, she's really coming along in leaps and bounds! I especially love the.last photo which emphasises the contour of the bow. Interesting shape. I'm looking forward to the resin and paint being applied. Have a great weekend! Cheers Patrick -
Thanks Mark! I'm also happy that I'm able to get back to the shipyard. Tis a nice feeling, for sure. Thanks also to everyone for their Likes. Have a great weekend! Cheers Patrick

Thanks Frank! Yep, it's been a while in between updates, but life's just been getting in the way lately! Hopefully, that's going to change and I'll be back to normal soon. Cheers Patrick

Hi everyone Thanks for all of your Likes and comments, especially in relation to the 'little accident" that befell Majellan. Well, after the accident, I've put her all back together. The following photos show Majellan so far. A little bit of glue, putty and much swearing and, she's well on her way to being fully healed. The superstructure has received a few more coats of paint. Once I've completed the painting of the superstructure, I can then get on with the lower deck's fit-out. Oh...and let's not forget that there's also the painting of the hull, the addition of the rudders, propellers, radars, aerials, and adding the ship's boat and jet skis to the garage, etc, etc, etc. In other words, lots more work to go!!! Fun, though. All the best, everyone! Cheers Patrick

Piet!!!! That's fantastic! ....and it's just the prototype??? I just stand back, gulp and admire! Nicely done. Cheers Patrick

Hi Denis I really like the shape of your new boat, especially the bow cabin. It gives it a really nice and distinctive shape. What also amazes me is just how different this hull is from your original hull. I can now understand what must have driven you to make this new hull, because it certainly seems that the original hull was more of a fishing boat design. This hull seems to suit your vision much better! I'm not as confused as before, because I understand better where you're heading now. Keep going!! Cheers Patrick

Hi Nenad Sounds typical, but also very interesting! I'd love to see the 'flower school' when it's fully assembled. Cheers Patrick- 4,151 replies

Hi Denis Happy belated 28th Anniversary! Glad to hear that the day went well! Cheers Patrick

Hi Denis Congrats - Another milestone reached! The hull's Starting to take shape nicely especially with the fine entry to the bow. More sanding and a lick of paint will definitely go a long way to making her look even better. Keep up the great work. Cheers Patrick
-
Hi Denis Thanks for asking! Whilst I was able to put most of her back together again over the following couple of days after the accident, I haven't been able to do much on Majellan for the past two to three weeks for various reasons. Hopefully, I'll try to get back to her soon. All the best Patrick

Hi Hans I'm impressed! That's one mighty fine looking hull. I'm looking forward to following along. Cheers Patrick
-
Hi Nils Seeing your finger in the last photo highlights just how small the deckhouse is. Having said that, I've gotta say, damn that's nice! More than anything, I think it's the rivets that enhance the overall appearance for me. Nice job! Cheers Patrick

Hi Willie I love watching the vids! She's alive! A couple of quick questions - Is there an issue with water potentially ingressing the hull due to it's low freeboard? Also, how do you think she'll perform in choppy waters? Would the bow rise and fall out of the water as she hits the waves, do you think? No problem, either way. I'm just curious because I've really got no idea how the real ships performed in rough seas. Cheers Patrick
-
Hi Jond Congrats on the launching of both boats. They look really nice on the water. I'm sure that you'll have the little teething problems fixed in no time. All the best! Patrick

Hi Mark I was thinking of some wise words of consolation to put your mind at ease, but Carl's said it perfectly for me... A truer word has never been said. Thanks Patrick
-
Hi Mark You're certainly pushing ahead now. One milestone (the hull) is over and now you can move onto the deck and cabin. Looking great! Cheers Patrick
