French Harbor dredge

[gisel]

I noticed that whenever we show pictures from one of those great model shows in Belgium or France, there are always one or two models of French Harbor dredges.

Can we maybe convince one of our international model companies to produce something totally different, it would be great to see a dredge instead of just another HMS Victory I know Gerard Delacroix published a book on these little critters and could be used as the base for a great model

Every modeller must build there own Victory once in their lifetime. After that they can enjoy themselves with dredges.
