Can't say I'm impressed with the model bloke - doesn't look at all life-like

Not building a Springer at the moment... but i am (in between building another type of tug) working on a design for my... erm.. 11th (i think) Springer

Something else to confound the Springer world..

SteamboatPhil · « **Reply #1639 on:** February 21, 2010, 06:22:38 pm »

I'm working on my 4th (not steam this time) will be launched at the Mayhem Weekend (I hope) design still secret (ish)

Stolen from the excellent Czech site www.mo-na-ko.net site picture of a steam powered side-wheel paddle Springer. There is also an ad for "The Springer Cup 2010" 5th June at Pisek. Towing and polo plus a slot for steam boats. Always fancied a week-end in Prague

I`ve been doing a wee bit of browsing on the new Cromarty Ferry that will replace the "Cromarty Rose" which suffered the indignity of having to be towed to port after a major breakdown last year. The replacement will be operating later this month. A new-build by Southampton Marine Services will be a bit larger at 56ft long and carry twice as many cars, ie 4 . They have time-lapse video on the builder`s website. I`ll be going to have a ten minute crossing from Cromarty to Nigg as soon as she arrives on station. Attached pic is "Rose" in her last colour scheme.

Perfick subject for a springer and Martins photo is just about 1/4 springer size for measurements

Must have a go at it!

Ned

P.S. The stop frame build idea is great
Just the job for one of DD's build logs!
