CaptainSteve Posted January 2, 2015 #3155 Posted January 2, 2015 Is it the Himiko ?? ... a cruise ship designed by anime/manga artist, Leiji Matsumoto. st george 1 Quote CaptainSteve Current Build: HM Granado Bomb Vessel (Caldercraft) My BathTub: Queen Anne Barge (Syren Ship Models) Log: Queen Anne Barge (an build log) Bounty Launch (Model Shipways) Log: Bounty Launch by CaptainSteve Apostol Felipe (OcCre) HMS Victory (Constructo) Check It Out: The Kit-Basher's Guide to The Galaxy Website: The Life & Boats of CaptainSteve

amateur Posted January 2, 2015 #3158 Posted January 2, 2015 Tyne or Clyde built steel barque. First guess: Glenlee Jan Quote
CaptainSteve Posted January 2, 2015 #3159 Posted January 2, 2015 (edited) Sorry, Amateur, I really don't know too much about this one ... Although, I do know it isn't the Glenlee.

st george Posted January 2, 2015 #3160 Posted January 2, 2015 At first I thought it was the Wavertree, but the building in the background doesn't look like New York. Now found the building and ship in Melbourne. Is it the Polly Woodside? CaptainSteve 1 Quote David Current Build : HMAV Bounty - Amati Next Build : 18th Century Longboat

qwerty2008 Posted January 20, 2015 #3173 Posted January 20, 2015 Not exactly the name that I was looking for but the USCGC Acushnet (WMEC-167) did go by the name USS Shackle for a relatively short period at the start of its life.

All of them photograhped at this specific location, of which I am not copmpletely sure: I guess it is the Nieuwe Diep at the Den Helder Naval harbour. Jan Quote
