February 2023




Michel Santarelli. One of Tabarly's first trimaran, my idol who made me want to taste sailing! 35+ year old boat
that doesn't come out of its box often and will be in for a full restoration! Found the plans in my files!
The Artimon Edition. 4 planks.

April 2023



Schnellboote, und zuvor die dampfbetriebenen Torpedoboote, waren über Jahrzehnte die bevorzugte
Schiffsgattung der Marine. Kein Marine-Waffensystem war geeigneter zum Küstenschutz des eigenen Territoriums
und für den Einsatz in den Randmeeren der Nord- und Ostsee. So unterhielt jede Marine umfangreiche
Schnellbootgeschwader und entwickelte diese Gattung ständig weiter. Der Höhepunkt dieser Entwicklung
stellten die Lürssen-Boote der Klasse 143 / ALBATROS und die der Klasse 143A / GEPARD dar.
Frank Johnke baute eine P 6111 Albatros,
über die Helmut Harhaus in der aktuellen Ausgabe 04/2023 von SchiffsModell berichtet.

From Facebook:
The tugboat ‘America’ was built in 1897 for service on the Great Lakes. Over time, her steam engine
was removed in favor of diesel and her profile was altered somewhat. However, incredibly, she is still moving
the big boats around at the Port of Monroe in Michigan and is the oldest commercially operating tug in the world.
My scratch-made model depicts her early in her long life. Kirk Brust.

October 2023




Seen  at New Brighton water yesterday ( October 2023 ) was a brand new concept model
for a long overdue Mersey Ferry  replacement . Developed by  Mersey Ferry enthusiast Clint Nicholls
using the well tried hull form best suited to  the nuances of the river Mersey 
or in this instance New Brighton  model boating lake .

December 2023





            
 
This evening the company MMG (Mecklenburger Metallguss GmbH) has rented our event area on deck 10. Even if you don’t know the company, you are probably familiar with their work. The history of the company can be followed back to 1875, in the production of metallic parts for mechanical engineering. After World War II, the company became more and more specialised in shipbuilding parts, and most of all propellers. The production of propellers of over 80 tonnes has been their core business. They have produced the blades that set ships like the Queen Mary 2 in motion, but also container ships like those of the Emma-Maersk-class or the Colombo-Express-class of Hapag Lloyd.
MMG asked us if we have a model of a ship, they have made the propeller for, and we could lend it for their event. That is why the original yard model of the Bremen Express (part of the Colombo-Express-class) in a scale of 1:200 has left its usual position beside our ship handling simulator on deck 1, to be on deck 10 for an evening.

The Bremen Express was built in 2008 at the Hyundai Heavy Industries shipyard in Ulsan, Republic of Korea, for the Hapag Lloyd AG. She was the seventh sister of a class of 8 container carriers with a capacity for 8749 TEU (standard containers). The ships were all built by the same shipyard between 2004 and 2008 and are all still in service today. None of them has been sold or renamed. Six further ships of the class had been ordered, but they were cancelled to build the units of the larger Hamburg-Express-class (13200 TEU).
The ships are 356,5 m long and 43 m wide, powered by a MAN diesel engine of the type 12K98ME with 46907 hp. Their top speed is 25 knots. They are operated by a crew of 24.
