trippwj Posted April 22, 2015 #1 Posted April 22, 2015 Good afternoon, one and all. I hope that all are doing well. Attached is an updated version of my nautical resources This first file is primarily PDF format files that can be found on the internet (link included whenever possible). Note that not all are free (some may require a subscription to a site or publication). Waynes Nautical Listing 22 April 2015.pdf This second file is primarily printed books (though a few PDF documents did sneak in). Waynes Nautical Books 22 April 2015.pdf As this is a work in progress, there are some obvious typographical errors and formatting issues in some of the listings that I will work on as time allows. Please let me know if you have any questions! ianmajor, RichardG, mtaylor and 6 others 9 Quote WayneNeither should a ship rely on one small anchor, nor should life rest on a single hope.Epictetus
flying_dutchman2 Posted April 22, 2015 #2 Posted April 22, 2015 Wayne; That is one extensive list of valuable information. Thank you. I am working on something like it on just Dutch Naval History (when there is time) and the resources are in Dutch, German and English. I created this in MS Access.

Tasman Unofficial motto of the VOC: "God is good, but trade is better" Many people believe that Captain J. Cook discovered Australia in 1770. They tend to forget that Dutch mariner Willem Janszoon landed on Australia’s northern coast in 1606. Cook never even sighted the coast of Western Australia).
flying_dutchman2 Posted April 23, 2015 #3 Posted April 23, 2015 Great listings invauable, to Marc anxious to see Dutch listings as next project would be a dutch merchant ship either from kit being developed or scratch from Hovings book. Don There were/are so many merchant ships/boats in and around The Netherlands. Every town on the water had one. One similar to the other. I do have a list and descriptions but it is all in Dutch. As you can see from my signature all ships will be from Hoving/Emke. btw, Hans, a member here' has started a kit company with Dutch ships. Batavia is one and the Dordrecht that looks very similar like the Batavia. They were both in the same convoy. Once his kits become available I will purchase one or more.

*Hans* Posted May 10, 2015 #4 Posted May 10, 2015 Hey guys - thank you already We're moving forwards, slowly but surely. As soon as it is available you be the first to know it! trippwj and flying_dutchman2 2 Quote Hans Owner of Kolderstok Models - 17th century Dutch ships.

flying_dutchman2 Posted May 11, 2015 #5 Posted May 11, 2015 Bit off topic. Your website looks very impressive. I like the box that the Batavia kit is delivered in with the maps. Also glad that you are doing the Duyfken. Marc *Hans* 1 Quote Current Built: Zeehaen 1639, Dutch Fluit from Dutch explorer Abel J.
