    Default Harbour master'd?

    You know how it is, you visit a friend, you play a game or three
    and you see something that stimulates the grey cells.

    Well having visited Rob's home and played and lost one won two
    with his magnificent harbour as the backdrop...I wondered...?

    Could I find buildings that would cover the period Age of Sail to WWII?

    As luck would have it a month or so later and I am with these fine shipmates
    at Newark conducting the demo at Partizan II

    when I came across these;

    Having now completed the Buildings

    I am going to plan and lay out the docks

    and then build up the docks height so that

    the ships along side on their bases are the

    correct height....

    More to follow when docks are built.

    Hope you like the first instalment.

    Great to follow a building programme me that i have been in on since its inception Simon.
    You may even inspire me to get those dry docks from Langtons, and complete the second part of my harbour.
