Title: New from Inverclyde
Post by: MGSweeney on July 05, 2016, 09:03:06 pm
Evening all, I've decided to start building models, i've ordered the plans and hull for the RMAS Moorhen, a ship which I seen on the Clyde often as I grew up. I'm a qualified Engineering Officer Of the Watch and sailed on PSVs, Anchor Handlers and Standby Boats. But now I am a design engineer and still want to work hands on so thought models were a good idea.
Ultimately i'd like to build model Anchor Handlers.

Regards,
Michael.
