USS Constitution from Scientific Models

Investing in the next generation through education and caring for the current generation by going to the gym... admirable. But what about the selfish indulgence of ship modeling, Vic?

Good morning Vic. 76 and still actively charging around- nice. Good to see you still have time to build some more sails and looking good. Cheers Grant

Thanks, Grant. Not charging around as well as I used to, though. That’s a redneck expression. I can’t bench press 305 pounds anymore, but I yustacoud. (Used to could)

Do what I can, when I can. Serving God and serving others come first. You ought to know what that’s like, Paul!

I really wanted to make this as accurate as possible. I even bought a book on the Connie.
But it seems I’ll have to simplify yet again.
