Can I have a little help? I'm trying to download plans for the Clemenceau and Gascoigne. Unfortunately it's loading as a quicktime video, not an image, so I cannot save any of it. Would somebody be willing to download the plans and email them to me?

The accumulated tif files for the Clemenceau are fairly hefty, a little too hefty for emailing, and I'm not inclined to sift through them tonight to find only the useful ones. However, since I have already completed my site-rip, I will upload the whole mess of Clemenceau tif files in a zip for you to some storage I have. Will post the link once the file finishes uploading.

If you have more you want let me know.

It comes up as unavailable

Karl - right click the plans and do 'Save target as...' no problems that way.

Ugh. Interesting. Either they suspended my account for hosting a 37mb zip file, or i happened to upload that on the last day of the hosting contract which we forgot to renew...

Edit: Was the hosting contract.  Fixed.

For those who are interested in French ships...  I am getting a new boat shop and intend to spend the fall setting it up.  This winter I plan to build a mold for the Algerie cruiser.  Assuming that goes well, I plan to build a mold for the Provence the following year.  I will probably be open to requests for other French hulls after that.

I found probably a 4x8 worth of fine grain 1/4 plywood scraps at a yard sale for $4.  Looks like material for cross sections to me

The shop is not connected to the house and will be insulated and heated so I can do fiberglass work during the winter.  I will probably also open the shop up on a monthly basis for build sessions.  (near Olympia, WA)

That is great news.
The Algerie is my favorite French cruiser.
I would also like to build a Provence at some point.
Keep us posted.
