Hi David, just came across your model of the Waverley & I just wanted to congratulate you on a first class model boat! The detail is fantastic, its a truly wonderful model. It reminds me of a trip we did a couple of years ago on the Waverley from Tower Bridge - Southend Pier - Whitstable Harbour and back, spent a lot of time down in the Engine room, it brought back many memories when I was about 6 years old when my Grandad took me on a day trip on the Waverley.....
All the best

Took time out from my new build to test float the barge I am building for my push boat to give it a long awaited float test for leaks and to mark the waterline. First decent day this winter!

Pawtucket YTM 359

This is the Dumas US Army tug kit showing the two hull halves being glued together, I hope to modify the model to replicate the tug I was Petty Officer in Charge of while in the Navy!

USS Chesty B Puller

USS Chesty B Puller, I was a marine, 63 inches long, prebuilt by Aquacraft, engines installed, but no radio, batteries or speed control. Looks great in water. preforms like a real one, especially in still water, but we don't have much of that in Kansas.

105 PBR PIBBER.

U.S. Navy PBR 31Mkll. Patrol Boat River.
This is a vessel that I'm building from scratch. To achieve accuracy I will be using a Tamiha 1/35 scale kit and scaling that kit up to 1/9th scale for the vessel I am building. it will measure up to almost 1 metre in length.

Nick,

Said not enough smoke!
Send it back for repairs!

I personally think the heating element is bad!

We shall see ….

Hi just to remind us of summer days during the cold spell we have. Sorry about the audio but this is the fishing trawler I built a while ago - having a sail around the lake in South Shields. We didn't catch many fish that day :-)

The tug boat looks nice, good details. I'm going to build the
Carol Moran tug.

Thanks, Davevand

Which Carol Moran there's the 1/72 scale and the 1/24th scale?
Either one will look very nice!

Don't forget to make a build blog!

Cheers, Ed
