| | 22 Sep 2008 06:30 PM | | A good rookie ship in my opinion but I am staying neutral in this one. The topic is the Alaska and that would be an interesting build. I personally have my huge ship... or two

| | 22 Sep 2008 07:26 PM | | When one of you fine gentlemen joins Battlestations and builds a BIG ship... :) then you can call it huge :) Wait for the build pics! I will show you huge! Mark's Yamato inspired me, along with a sh***y day today, to build a big one. I don't think I'll have any plywood left after I do the hull of this one.

I am putting my 70 gto back together for the second time in 15 years. That's a huge boat too according to my wife. [:0] | | Rob A.

| | 23 Sep 2008 04:55 AM | | I have had several (mainly when I was in the Navy and had money and time)... a 78 Corvette (rodded motor, + fancy fancy suspension from Corvette Suspension Products), a 61 Jaguar Mk2 saloon 3.8, a couple of Porsches, and my last surviving driveway toy... a 75 MGB that is getting restomodded with a Ford 302V8 (the V8 was a gift from the father-in-law, just needs rebuilding). I already did the chrome-bumper conversion and started the interior. But I've been focusing on boats for the last year or so...
As for my new big project... two words: Operation Rheinubung. | | | Battling: SMS Scharnhorst, SMS Baden
