My greatest success (Indirect)

This was my greatest success (indirect). The cargo liner Clan MacTaggart. I sold it years ago for a relatively small sum. Years later, it turned up at Charles Miller Ltd London maritime auction house, valued at £250 - £400. There were 31 bids for it, and it was finally sold for a total of £3,936! But as I said, indirect, because it was not me who owned it at that time!

Thanks, but it was nothing special, I would have felt guilty even asking £1,000 for it :)
Not to be compared with this one:

My earlier ones (Like this) were pretty awful! It is just a matter of practice - Biggest obstacle is not even trying, on the assumption you can't do it!Rhodesia Star 1973.jpg
