Congratulations on a job very well done! This is a really exceptional build, fantastic craftsmanship and a great eye for detail. The photos of the whole model really showcase how well everything comes together. Sometimes I find myself favoring more of a weathered look, but this model does a great job at showing how a clean build can highlight the elegance of even a relatively simple workboat. It was a true pleasure to follow along as you built this. Any ideas of what you're building next?

Superb build and excellent craftsmanship.  A model to be proud of.  I love work boats and models like this reinforce my feelings.

Hi Everyone, my thanks to @JacquesCousteau, @ccoyle, @kurtvd19, @davec, @Glen McGuire, @Keith Black, @Jim Lad. Your generous comments make this effort so worthwhile. Thank you Chris for updating the title. Not sure what comes next Jacques but it will probably be another work boat of some sort. Watching everyone scratching together their builds has been a great inspiration!

Regards……..Paul
