   Doug, well spotted, nothing to do with hemispherical positioning though, purely operator error!!! comes from assembling the nav. lights with the cabin upside down on your lap!!!
   Remedial action taken 😉

   Lars Halverson (Australia) made some stunning launches after the war. One of Australias' best ever boat builders.

   I remembered this seaplane tender from Model Boats October 1917 in the readers models section page 58 it was by Bill Burtwell from Canada.
   It was available as Model Boats Plan MAR2077 (Sarik Hobbies)
   
   P.S. the plan featured in the 2012 Winter Special Edition

   "we like to be different !😂 cos we can be😁"
   Careful JB. That may boomerang back on you!😁
   Yep. The aborigines did invent the aerofoil.
   Was not a success for airliner design though.
   They kept landing back at the departure airport🤔
   😂🤣
   Cheers, Doug 😎
   PS "the water goes down the plug'ole the other way down here as well"

   And the water goes down the plug'ole the other way down here as well Doug, and Aussie beavers are crossed with ducks etc, we've got a massive parrot which don't fly - we have all the unusual stuff down here and we like to be different !😂 cos we can be😁. We're at the top of the world the other way round😎. BTW the indigenous Aussies invented the aerofoil!

   Or is that something peculiar to the southern hemisphere? Like the 'upside-down' compass?😉

   Nice clean lines but enough detail to look right. Quite the credit to you. Like the colour scheme too. Expect you will get a lot of enjoyment from her.
