    Hi Ronald
    I have tried cleaning the windows, the thing is I can only cut out some of the W/H floor, as a lot of the W/H if fitted out.
    Talking of windows I do have to make the wipers and motor box.

    Fred
    That's all right, Mr Ryan. My Morse is so rusty, I could be sending him dimensions on Playmate of the Month.

    My skipper friend said about a derelict fishing trawler that he was towing to the scrap yard, โ€œ I canโ€™t even begin to understand how you could even let your boat get to that level.โ€

    Looking forward to seeing it all shipshape, brass polished, windows cleaned and ready for service. ๐Ÿค—

    Hi One & All
    Hermank I think you are pulling my leg.
    Ronald thank you for the photo's, so far I have just cleaned the deck I am still working on the wheel house then it will be the railings, yes I have gone overboard (pun intended) with the rust on the hatch, as for the deck I still need to do more work on it, just waiting for the weather to improve so that I can get outside to do more cleaning and some painting
    Fred repaint.
    That's all right, Mr Ryan. My Morse is so rusty, I could be sending him dimensions on Playmate of the Month.

    We can see you have a skill of making a model look not cared for by its owners. Those railings look to be nearly rusted through and not secure.

    Any vessel that I have been on didnโ€™t look like this nor the vessels seen on the job. Yes there is weathering seen from walking on the deck or wear chains and towing gear is constantly rubbing on the surface.

    But this looks like a vessel almost ready for the scrap yard. If the deck working surface looks like this, just imagine what the interior looks like! Or the engine room and crews areas, it would be disgusting!

    O.K Thomas Gainsborough I am not.
    To give me an idea of how it will look with a yellow top, I do like it.

    Hi One & All
    I have now finished doing the cleaning of the Yorkshireman, all the new elec parts are on order, so the next thing on the to do list is repaint the hull, now I am thinking I just may do the top of the hull Yellow, time to play in paintshop to see how it may look.

    Hi One & All
    O.K with the old brain box in gear, I have worked out just were the wheel went.
    One thing that I am not happy with are the hand screws that are used to move the Crain about, so I was thinking that may be if I made a small box with two handles and some pipe I could make it look as if the Crain is hydraulic.
