Greetings from Sweden


Recommended Posts

 

Hello to all members on this forum,

I have been on the forum long time ago where I ve learned ( and I still learning) a lot of great things from really experienced members,thanks to all of you.

My name is Alexander and I started with my first wooden ship build maybe 20 years ago.Last few years I was not so much active,but right now I organise again my shipyard and prepare some plans and material. Because of my origin,I am most interested in wooden ships from Mediterranean (Italy,Croatia,Greece,Spain..) and because I am living in Sweden last 6 years I am interested in scandinavian wooden boats,too. So,probably the first model from new shipyard is going to be Brazzera🙂

Of course,that doesn`t mean that I am not interested to learn about other ships because I believe that every single wooden boat is like a human being😀.

Anyway,I would like to say thanks to all of you one more time and it will be very nice to enjoy here.

 

Alexander

Hello, Alexander! This is a great time to be a fan of Mediterranean ships, especially with all of the excellent kits coming out of MarisStella in Croatia.

 

Cheers!

Hello to all of you,

I joined on this wonderful place last year and I posted that I would like to start building Brazzera ship.I didn't have so much time to make photos and describe process and now I would like to share some images.

It is not finished jet,rigging and other small details are waiting...

This is my first model and there is a lot of mistakes.I hope so that next building gonna be better.That most important for me is that I enjoyed all the time and that  I ve learned a lot about wooden ships.
