| brilliant, andy.......I so love the dutch beamers.........so much grace and yet business like ships.
they always caused a stir when they sailed into fleetwood in the 60's and 70's.so different to what we were used to.
you've done a great job.

| Absolutely great work and the detail is superb. So much typical fishing boat clutter and netting. Gives a real boat feel to it. |

As above the chain matting finishes this of along with the dollies on the codend, also these eurocutters look beautiful,and the wheelhouses just look built for speed _________________ Trawler Pictures

| What I like best about your build is your decision to extend the keel and add the bulbus bow, for me that change makes it look so good and it even accentuates that jaunty angle on the wheelhouse.The whole model seems like it wants to leap forward. For my money it's a real winner. Dave |

| Only just noticed this build - it's an age thing!  So different to what I've seen, a lovely model, think it's great. Regards, Tony. |
