- BrightworkCommodoreThank you everyone. I am simply a builder and steward. Not sure what will happen to them in the future. I hope they end up in loving homes. I certainly enjoy them

- BrightworkCommodoreDW Brinkman. IKEA shelves with led tape lighting. Thank you for your kind words. These shelves are in the bedroom. I just can’t seem to get shelf space in the living room lol. Some are in my man cave as well. Cheers.Liked by PeterL3 and DWBrinkman
- DWBrinkmanRear AdmiralBrightwork,
You inspired me to do something to display some of my boats. It's just a start, but I cleared off some less interesting stuff from a couple of bookshelves and went to my shed and literally "dusted off" some of my Harbor.
Certainly not as beautiful as yours, but now I at least have a few of my boats to look at over the winter Dry Dock season.
Thanks for the inspiration!

- RNinMunichFleet AdmiralI reckon you're right Roy👍 but with some 'modellers license'.
Especially at the stern - seems to be intended for only one shaft whereas the original had two.
Stabilisers were also fitted to the hull.
The embryonic superstructure looks about right though.
Deans still do a kit, but it ain't cheap🤑🤑
Cheers, Doug😎

History of boating
If Professor Pat can do it...so can I...lol.. The history of boating spans millennia, evolving from dugout canoes and rafts in prehistory to sophisticated vessels powered by steam and advanced engines. Early boats, appearing around 10,000 years ago, were used for fishing and coastal travel, with Egyptians developing reed and wooden boats for transport and trade by 4000 BCE. Over centuries, innovations like the Viking longboat, the Chinese junk with its rudder, and the Dutch yacht transformed seafaring, eventually leading to the Age of Exploration and the flourishing of yachting as a recreational pursuit in the 17th century. Modern boating integrates electronic systems, computer-aided design, and emerging eco-friendly propulsion, reflecting its continuous adaptation.
