Man oh man! First, it is great to see you back at the shipyard. Second, that stern looks superb - I really like the red-framed windows; not only does it add great depth to the stern, but it almost lends a certain Asian element to it! I like!

Thank you Heinrich! The museum ship had red windows and gold stern galleries. So I followed that. With gold there would be no contrast, and with black they would be hard to see with the dark background. So red seemed like the right choice.

3/4 view of stern…

Soon I must put on the rudder, hinges and stop chains. There are two rear cannon doors I need to add as well.

An artist at work Dean. As I cannot paint to save my life I always enjoy watching you guys with this skill. I was sceptical about printed cannons but you are bringing them alive. Cheers Grant

A very happy birthday Dean.

Thank you to everyone for the Birthday wishes! I turned 64 today. I hate getting old, but it beats the alternative! It seems like yesterday I was 24, and I don’t know where the time went.

I got a new 12 string guitar and some money for my Birthday. My family and a few friends gave me a nice party yesterday and we had a lot of food, and the kids swam in the pool. So it was a very nice Birthday.

Happy Birthday, Dean, all my best wishes.

Ted Robinson · Monday at 9:15 AM

Happy birthday Dean, may this year be your best.
