  1. Hej Mike, 

    Var exakt bor du i Stockholm? Bodde själv i Österskär och senare i Gröndal.
    Glad sommar till dig!

      Hej Per!

      Jag bor i Stureby, så nästan bredvid Gröndal :)

      Glad sommar till er också! 

  2. Hi Chris,

     

    I am very much looking into getting the Sherbourne.

    The manual is already downloaded which I am reading to get me familiar with the model.

    But as you write in the introduction, she was a 6 x 3pound with 8 half pound swivel guns.

    In the instructions it doesn't mention where the proper locations would be.

    Do you have bulwarks patterns for the 6-gun setup?

     

    Thank you in advance.

      Hello Nirvana,

       

      Regarding swivel guns, they would be placed where needed at any particular time. Regarding the 3-Pounders, same applies, but I would place them in the last three gun ports.

      Chris, 

       

      Thank you for your information.

       

      I tried to find some history regarding her. But no such luck.

       

      Best regards

      Per

  3. Hi Lou,

    I was handed down the Swedish ship HMS Äran, from Neal.

    I am currently working on four ships.

    HMS Äran, will be at model stage (not display) at Foss Waterway Museum.

    There is still a lot of work to do.

     

  4. Jaager, Thank you for noticing our mistake of placing the build in wrong time-era.

    It has now been rectified. 

     

    Thank you

  5. With the move from a "Desert area" of Connell, WA to Centralia, WA
    The Admiral and I has become more active and exploring areas around us.
    This has resulted with many new discoveries, such as many trails and incredible buildings from the 1800's.

    Now I have several areas for R/C sailing...…. one area I know for sure being used for R/C water activities is the Fort Borst Park.
    They even have a step launch..... if I could find some sponsors to build a pond pier, this could be a great competitive for motor and sailing area.

    This from a Google aerial picture.

    East of this lake there is Hayes Lake, I haven't done any research regarding access, but with several restaurants around I guess I could set some R/C event in the future.

    Both lakes in less than 10 minutes drive from home.

    But one location I very curious about is the " No name pond" even closer to home is this one, could walk there for a good exercise.

    Update for this location will come.
