FlyingFish Posted July 18, 2023 Author #211 Posted July 18, 2023 (edited) Hi Marty, Wow! I'm delighted, and very flattered to hear from you - thank you so much for taking the time to comment. It's particularly pleasing to have the original 'Orca' builder complementing the process; I guess you have seen many many models of your work - which is of course the best complement we can pay you! You have inspired so many of us to have a go at recreating the boat, and we all enjoyed (or were terrified by) the movie enough to get involved in the story. You did a great job back then. I'm very pleased to be an honorary member of the crew - I must get a T shirt printed now! Of course you can print the photo - message me with a contact email and I can send the original if you like. Thanks again! Edited July 18, 2023 by FlyingFish Marty Milner, mtaylor and FriedClams 3 Quote Andy 'You're gonna need a bigger boat!' Completed Build: Orca from the film 'Jaws'.

FlyingFish Posted April 24 Author #212 Posted April 24 (edited) You may be interested to hear that after a very long break in posting updates, the 'Tips from a Shipwright' channel has resumed the build of 'Orca'. I hesitate to mention this in case it goes into hibernation again, but is is [deleted] for those 'Orca' fans amongst you. EDIT: Can no longer recommend this - the channel has finished.
