Anja Posted July 2, 2013 Author Share #391 Posted July 2, 2013 Hello Popeye, It was our pleasure. A pity though that the card didn't get to you in time. It took the postal services almost two weeks from sending to delivering. That is long. Must remember to post a card at least two weeks in advance. Say hello to Phyllis for me. Take care, Anja Quote Those we loved but lost are no longer where they were, but are always where we are.

popeye the sailor Posted October 12, 2013 Share #395 Posted October 12, 2013 I was contacted by a gentleman......he would like to purchase a kit of the half Moon, and the question was asked which manufacturer would be best...Corel or Billing's. I know very little about the corel kit, or the instructions, does Corel have a PDF page on their site, so the instructions and plans can be seen? I'd be verey interested in seeing them.

Anja Posted October 13, 2013 Author Share #396 Posted October 13, 2013 Hello Popeye, I am really not sure if Corel's Half Moon is any better then the one from Billing Boats. Corel has a PDF file, but only two pages with pictures, no instructions and plans. The instruction manual is a real pain in the proverbial backside. At least for me it is. With Corel you have to read the manual very carefully and take a good look at the plans, before you do anything. That's something I didn't do and therefore made mistakes. I can't make any copies of the plans and send them to you, because the plans say 'riproduzione vietata' (all rights reserved). But if you want, I think it will be ok to post some pictures of the plans here in my log. Anja Quote Those we loved but lost are no longer where they were, but are always where we are.

Anja Posted October 13, 2013 Author Share #397 Posted October 13, 2013 Hej Anja, I (and I'm surely not the only one) now have patiently waited quite some time for updates.. Hopefully you have a reason and have not giving her up yet ? Hello Theo, I know it has been quite a while since my laste update. No, I haven't given up on my Half Moon. She is still in dry dock waiting to be finished. And she will be finished, I promise. In the beginning I was so enthousiastic to start building her, I didn't had a good look at the manual and/or the plans. And that's what brought me in trouble and caused me to make mistakes, wich I have to solve. The hull is stained. I'm working on the railings and am in the process of correcting the masts allignments. In the beginning they fitted perfectly. But now ...... Only one mast fits perfectly. Once this is finished, I will update my log. Thank you for looking and and your patience. Have a great sunday.

popeye the sailor Posted October 13, 2013 Share #398 Posted October 13, 2013 so, then I guess the Corel plans aren't any better than the Billing's plans. is the PDF on the Corel site? the "all rights reserved" pertains to piracy issues for the most part.......no one can copy them. I've posted the Revell Cutty Sark instructions on another forum for folks to download a copy......Revell has made no attempt to stop me from doing it........heck, I'm doing them a favor, because they don't list it in their model PDF page. they have quite an extensive list. I don't see any problems posting pictures of them here. got to go to work now.........I'll be back this evening Quote I yam wot I yam! finished builds: Billings Nordkap 476 / Billings Cux 87 / Billings Mary Ann / Billings AmericA - reissue Billings Regina - bashed into the Susan A / Andrea Gail 1:20 - semi scratch w/ Billing instructions M&M Fun Ship - semi scratch build / Gundalow - scratch build / Jeanne D'Arc - Heller Phylly C & Denny-Zen - the Lobsie twins - bashed & semi scratch dual build Billing T78 Norden in dry dock: Billing's Gothenborg 1:100 / Billing's Boulogne Etaples 1:20 Billing's Half Moon 1:40 - some scratch required Revell U.S.S.

maggsl_01 Posted November 12, 2013 Share #409 Posted November 12, 2013 (edited) Hallo --- get all aboard I have done it: I ordered the Half Moon by Corel, will be delivered soon (within 4 days they said). I was not sure if I dare to build a wooden ship indeed, but now the way is here and has to be walked. I will open a log - perhaps... not sure if I have the courage to show my first built to all this experts around here... But: There is no expert that became expert by birth.

Anja Posted January 8, 2014 Author Share #413 Posted January 8, 2014 Hello Cergina, Thank you for looking in at my build. Yes, it is really time for me to finish her. But life and and a lot of work got in the way. The discovery ship the Half Moon was a small and lightly armed galleon, although in VOC documents it is called a Yacht. And by Emanuel van Meteren (a Flemish Historian) even Vlieboot (flyboat). Your Bon Homme Richard is coming along nicely.
