Jay 1 Posted December 4, 2013 #2133 Posted December 4, 2013 You got her, Joe and yep, your spelling is on the money--figured she'd be easy and fun. Handing it over to you, sir! Jay Quote Current Build: Ariel
WackoWolf Posted December 4, 2013 #2134 Posted December 4, 2013 Now she that is where the mistake is going to be. handing it over to me, I got lucky because Gilligan Island is on METV, and I think I have seen everyone since when it first came out back in the day. But if I do find a ship I will post it for all to see. Jay 1 1 Quote Wacko Joe Go MSW :)
molasses Posted December 10, 2013 #2135 Posted December 10, 2013 After almost a week, it appears that the last winner isn't going to take his turn. I suggest that we send out the press gang to find the previous winner, JMaitri, to post another ship. mtaylor, egkb and st george 3 Quote Current Builds: ESMERALDA Chilean Navy School Ship, 1/640 in a bottle insanity Dan Clapp's hard water race boat in a bottle Completed Build: Prairie Schooner OGALLALA 1/96 in a bottle Research Project: Cruizer-class Brig-Sloops "Beer is proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy." - Benjamin Franklin

st george Posted December 16, 2013 #2140 Posted December 16, 2013 Is it the HNLMS Flores? Quote David Current Build : HMAV Bounty - Amati Next Build : 18th Century Longboat
amateur Posted December 16, 2013 #2141 Posted December 16, 2013 Actually, it's the other half of the twins: Soemba. But as these two are completely identical, it's up to you to post teh next one. Pic is taken somewhere in the east-indies, as she has her sun-gear installed on deck. Soemba and Flores were 1920-ies build gunsloops, in active service till after WWII, were they were involved in actions in the mediterranean and at D-day. Flores has been used as instruction vessel until the eighties. Jan Quote

st george Posted December 20, 2013 #2143 Posted December 20, 2013 Time for some clues, I think. She was built in Sweden in 1909 and was the first of many to carry the name. Good Luck Quote David Current Build : HMAV Bounty - Amati Next Build : 18th Century Longboat
BareHook Posted December 20, 2013 #2144 Posted December 20, 2013 Hmmm, methinks many participants may be on holiday for the season. I have no idea, but I am curious as to whether or not she survived her icy stay there? Since she appears to have a wood hull.

amateur Posted December 20, 2013 #2146 Posted December 20, 2013 I see many similarities, but Norrskar is still with us (the original one). Although the one still sailing wasn't build under that name.... Jan Quote

Menno Posted December 21, 2013 #2150 Posted December 21, 2013 (edited) Thank you David, for posting a beautiful ship. I always like many of the Swedisch ship designs. Now that it's my turn I want to post a picture a ship that I realy like as it fast and agile. She was build in 1905 in Scotland. She went under 3 different names and had 5 diffferent owners (one was the Britisch Royal Navy which used her as a mine sweeper) during her 35 years life time. Unfortunatly it didn't survive WWII (whlile taking part in operation Dynamo). I hope that'll give enough clues. Good luck and happy christmas. Edited December 21, 2013 by Menno Quote

Menno Posted December 21, 2013 #2152 Posted December 21, 2013 Hi Jan, If you're talking about the PS Waverly that was build 1899 then yes that ship also served as a minesweeper but the the ship Im talking about served for the navy during a different period and was build in 1905. Quote

amateur Posted December 21, 2013 #2154 Posted December 21, 2013 We had the Queen of Kent, quite recently. This one is of the same build, but a different funnel-configuration... Jan Quote
Menno Posted December 21, 2013 #2155 Posted December 21, 2013 Sorry, I haven't noticed we already had Queen of Kent recently otherwise I would have picked another to keep it more interesting. Captain Slog is awfully close with his Glen Gower tho that ship was build in 1922 instead of 1905 and also survived WWII. Quote

Menno Posted December 23, 2013 #2157 Posted December 23, 2013 Thats not a drum roll. That's a loud final bang.

Captain Slog Posted December 23, 2013 #2160 Posted December 23, 2013 Well that was short lived Right class, Canopus, but not the Albion, no point making you guess the other 5. HMS Ocean. Chosen because it was mentioned in 'Dreadnought' I am reading. See you all in another 150 pages Your turn Jan.
