Thanks for posting those photos of the Waverly. I'd just been admiring the picture of it on the shelf in your other thread of the Mississippi steamer. She's a beautiful ship, I wish there were more like her still around. Nice to see her in the water - that's answered the question that I asked in the other threadBigGrin
Happy building
David

I have got the plans for the Duchess of Fife but I recon at my build rate she won't get started for 3 yrs at least I have so many other scratch build projects on at the moment I've got the stern wheeler to finish a Thames barge a pilots launch a 76" Queen Elizabeth. That's not to mention all the plastic kits I will be building in between.
