Well it looks like the Paddleducks site will continue after all. This must be good news for all model boat enthusiast.
Thanks for your input Stephen.
I hope this site will continue to diversify. I would post my present build, but a traction engine is to much of a diversion.

Thanks Stephen. Like most modellers I have looked at all the modelling sites I can fined, boats, aircraft,and engineering. I do like this site as there is no rubbish here. As you say information lost is a great shame. At least Eddy has an option, keeping fingers crossed. I may be totally out of order but hope not. I did have 41557 hits on one of my builds, not bad, my only connection to P.D.s Geoff

Good luck with this. Paddlers are an interest to me but not on their own. I find getting onto your site easy which the others are not so.

HI Hammer,

I've written to Eddy offering to transfer all the content to this website, effectively preserving it. I'm not sure if he'll take me up on the offer as I've not recieved any reply yet, but it would be nice to see the content and a few of the members from paddleducks on here.

Let's see what happens. it would be an awful shame to lose it all.

Among the boats I have built are 2 paddle steamers, still working on a third. When building these I found the Paddleducks web site dedicated to paddle steamers very useful. Sadly this site Is In danger of closing, various reasons quoted. First the gentleman running It has personal reasons. Secondly a lack of posts, being restricted to one type of boat there Is only so much that can be said.
So please continue diversifying away from just fire boats, & hopefully Increase posts. If P.D. site did close It would be nice to see It here, If possible.
