Piet Posted July 4, 2017 #16 Posted July 4, 2017 Selamat siejang Jonk dan apaa kabar? Good to finally see someone from Java, welcome on board. Being from Indonesia I personally would like to see you build a traditional Indonesian ship, like a Buginese Prau/phinisi. That is one of the ships I intend to build myself, if I can find the drawings for it that is. What part of Java are you from? I was born in Surabaya 1934, and lived in Darmo near ruma sakit Darmo. Let us know what ship you have picked to build. Cheers, mtaylor, SGraham and jonk 3 Quote Piet, The Flying Dutchman.
