Thanks for the compliments!  Well, I'm not too sure that 'masterpiece' is an apt description, but I'm pretty chuffed with it, nonetheless. 

 

Have a great week!

 

Cheers  

 

Patrick

Hey Patrick, I have seen several pics of both Shadow as well as Majella on MSW Facebook. Yes, Patrick, those two yachts go down as masterpieces! You are very skilled :)

Dear Patrick, I have enjoyed following Shadow very much but the very last photo is amazing. This is a very busy model! I ll wait the "formal" announcement of completion before I congratulate you but I ll also be waiting for your next project, twin hull if I am not mistaken...

I ll be watching from the back rows

 

Vaddoc

Hi Vaddoc - thanks heaps for your compliments. Greatly appreciated!  I’m really glad that you’ve been enjoying Shadow’s journey, which is slowly coming to an end.  I hope you can join my next journey, but from a front row seat, this time😉.

Hi Brian - I’m  kinda blushing at the moment, but it sure feels nice to get positive feedback from yourself and others. It makes the headaches and pain all worthwhile😁.

Hi folks!

 

Thanks for all of your Likes and comments.

 

A quick update:  Tonight, I’ve added more scatter cushions, particularly around the spa.  In addition, I’ve also added four umbrellas to protect the bathing beauties from the Sun😉.

 

Lastly, I had a bit of fun by trying to take some photos of Shadow in the shadows, (ie turning off all the lights in the room and only using the flash to highlights all the bits and bobs), so to speak.  I hope you like the following photos.

 

Cheers. 

 

Patrick

G'day Patrick

BLOODY marvellous mate.

It's been a long time that we have talk and I've seen your log. Been away because of moving and I got very sick. 

Hope the weather in Pert is not too hot for your cleaning business mate.

all the best

Hi all

 

Thanks for all of your Likes and comments.

 

After a really sad week last week, I decided to get back to Shadow to take my mind off things.  

 

I added a bit more detail and thought I’d take some more artistic photos of Shadow.  Here goes.

 

Cheers. 

 

Patrick

 Hello Patrick

 

Just fascinating to say the least. I am just amazed at all of that very fine detail that you have added so easily or should I say it looks that way from here. When do you suppose that you will have sea trials in the harbor? Sure do hope that I am on the guest list for that great cruse!!! Just kidding for sure but in reality that would be a very special dream, WELL DONE,                                                                                                                                                      ENJOY.

 

Regards   Lawrence

Hi Lawrence.  Thanks and, like you, I’m also pretty chuffed at how she’s looking now.  Now, if only I really could go for a cruise on the harbour, well, that’d be great too.

Hi Denis. Great to hear from you!  Ahem....the engines are coming...I promise.  That is, as soon as I can figure out how to do them😩!!!

 

Have a great week!

Hi Folks!  

 

It’s been a sad week.  Mum’s funeral was held on Monday this week.  At 91 years old...a good innings, as they say.

 

Needless to say, the shipyard was pretty quiet this week; that is, until tonight, in which I was able to do a bit more work, and also take these photos and short videos.  Ahem...all I can say after watching them, is that these close up photos and videos show up every bit of dust, inaccuracy and mistake...oh well...

 

Pls enjoy!

 

Thanks

 

Patrick

The "like" is for your work, Patrick.   You have my sympathies for the loss of your mother.

No words for this, Patrick.  That is just rubs the reality in one's face.  :(

Hi everyone 

 

Many thanks for all of your best wishes and condolences over the loss of my Mum.  Thanks, also, to all of you who hit the Like button.  Much appreciated on all counts.

 

I thought you may be interested in these photos that I took last night of all of Shadow’s decks, tenders, jet-skis, etc laid out in the open. I’ve also added the derricks in the focsle for the jet skis and tender.  Also, if you look closely on the focsle, I’ve added six sun lounges, complete with blue cushions, for the super models in their bikinis to lay upon.

 

Thanks and and I hope you like the photos.

 

All the best, folks.

 

Cheers. 

 

Patrick
