SaltyScot Posted Wednesday at 08:26 PM Author #122 Posted Wednesday at 08:26 PM Ladies and Gentlemen, Fishing season is pretty much upon us here in the Northern Neck of Virginia. This does not mean that I will be stopping my build, not at all. But, the time spent in the shipyard will be reduced when the weather is nice and I can get down to my dock (or out on the boat) and fish (I love this sport!!). I got my rods out after the long winter off season this afternoon and got them all rigged up for the upcoming fun: Glen McGuire, Nearshore, Ryland Craze and 1 other 4 Mark On the table: Lynx, Baltimore Clipper Schooner - MANTUA - 1:62 Awaiting shipyard clearance: HMS Endurance - OcCre - 1:70 Wishlist: 1939 Chris Craft Runabout - Garrett Wade - 1:8 Finished: Endeavour 1934 - J Class Racing Yacht - 1:80 Dogs do speak, but only to those who know how to listen

SaltyScot Posted 20 hours ago Author #125 Posted 20 hours ago Update on the shipyard..... (not so much on the build). I have decided to dedicate at the very least one day a week to my build. Although I enjoy being outdoors in this fine weather fishing, I find I am missing the serenity of my shipyard more than just a little. I was reading Marquardt's book "The Global Schooner" last evening, a book that I had borrowed from our local library but have since gone ahead and purchased for myself. The decision was made to not demote ship building to a bad weather or winter pastime, I enjoy it just too much. That and the fact that the CEO wants some more ships on shelves around the house GrandpaPhil, Keith Black, Jolly Jo and 2 others 5 Mark On the table: Lynx, Baltimore Clipper Schooner - MANTUA - 1:62 Awaiting shipyard clearance: HMS Endurance - OcCre - 1:70 Wishlist: 1939 Chris Craft Runabout - Garrett Wade - 1:8 Finished: Endeavour 1934 - J Class Racing Yacht - 1:80 Dogs do speak, but only to those who know how to listen

It is due back at the library at the end of this month and I couldn't bear the thought of not having it here on my shelf.
