uss frolick Posted October 2, 2021 #3 Posted October 2, 2021 Since North Dakota and Oregon are practically neighbors, you need to hustle over there. Take your shovel, Mark, and a tape measure, and some hip waders too. We will be expecting reconstructed plans within a week. And don't forget the carvings ...

I'll have to move fast as winter is coming. I'll also take some appropriate materials to do some underwater basket weaving for relaxation.

Maybe just mapping the wreck and a bit of recovery. thibaultron and Canute 2 Mark "The shipwright is slow, but the wood is patient." - me Current Build: Past Builds: La Belle Poule 1765 - French Frigate from ANCRE plans - ON HOLD Triton Cross-Section NRG Hallf Hull Planking Kit HMS Sphinx 1775 - Vanguard Models - 1:64 Non-Ship Model: On hold, maybe forever: CH-53 Sikorsky - 1:48 - Revell - Completed Licorne - 1755 from Hahn Plans (Scratch) Version 2.0 (Abandoned)
