Don't think it's impossible that its contemporaries landed on 'our' coast? Scottish Guy, Keith Black and mtaylor 3 Quote Simon.

Thank you, I agree with it, when you read about their travels, who knows, maybe it was once here on the Scottish Coast somewhere. It will be my first wooden build, have done a few plastic models (only space ships, never real ships) and some resin builds (movie characters like Freddy Kruger, Alien Queen, Predator etc.) but never before a wooden model. We will see how I do lol... Micha Keith Black, mtaylor and BrochBoating 3 Quote "The sea, once it casts its spell, holds one in its net of wonder forever."
