Thanks Mark
Nice real nice.
What a handsome looking ship.
He says to himself " I must not buy more models I must build, I must build ..."
LOL
Man this release is testing the 2007 modelling resolution big time and its only 17 odd days into the year.

Hmmm....
Well, Mr. Ford,
I've been trying to organize an "Oars and Wind" group build here at MSW for a while, now, mate, if we could get a few more to participate. . .might be a good ship to start with, eh, Sean?

Geez Mark
You may well have me breaking my resolution with talk like that. As they say "That's what friends are for" LOL.
Actually I would like to build one of these sailing ships.
So its very tempting.
However reviewing my list of under construction and to be built sobers me up to reality. My mantra is "I am a kit builder not a collector, I am a kit builder not a collector, I am a kit builder not a collector, ...." LOL

:-) I hear ya, Sean!
But you know what, I like to call myself a kit builder as well, but just one look at the ever growing (just ask my wife!
) stacks of unbuilt kit boxes, well. . .

Easy solution Sean...just build faster! My stash is in the bottom half of the front bath linen closet. When it gets full, then I stop buying. As long as there is room in and I can find everything, look out lhs!

Easier said than done
Considering I buy more than I build :-) :-)
I am making a stash for when I retire
But I have one 1/350 sailling barge in my stash, for obvious reasons!
So, nothing is lost
