Zulus, Scottish herring drifters circa. 1890. [COMPLETED BUILD]

A long time ago I made a model of a Zulu using the plans of Muirneag to be found in Edger J March's volume Sailing Drifters. The model now sits in an unusual hotel - ex castle - in Stornoway where the vessel was registered. Lovely vessel but sadly none afloat now but there is one in the Scottish Fisheries Museum on the Fife coast. Having built a model I painted a picture of her.(8)Zulu model profile-1.JPG(9)Zulu Model deck-2.JPG(9)Zulu Model deck-2.JPG(7)The race home stage 5.JPG
