| | Re: Beginning to look like a ship now. Gilly.....I don't count in hours, I count in months. Started this one in July of last year. Of course, I work very slow these days, and not every day. But it is a longer term project.

| | Re: Beginning to look like a ship now. Absolutely wonderful work, and you really brought it to life with the story about it's true history. Thanks for including that.
On another note, I know all about the hole in the water that you throw money into. We used to have a 53 foot houseboat that sunk in 65 feet of water. One day, I hope to have the stupid thing paid for. It's a long, sad, story.....but I got over it a few years back. My husband's love of boats is limited to "things we can afford to lose" now.
