wow.
Thanks Rick. I’ll post some close ups when I get a chance. Today I’m clearing up the work table. The black-white-buff color scheme turned out to be handsome.

Very nice! [Y][Y]
A few more close-ups. I am having a hard time with getting a good picture of the cargo hose, as it’s black. It is a piece of lead soldering wire. The boom was altered to be swung out to lift the hose.
The yellow line handling boat is supposed to be a 1/500 scale ‘cabin cruiser’, but it does well at this scale to represent the little work boats that tow out mooring lines to the free-standing dolphins fore and aft.
We always left a wire hanging off the stern, an “insurance wire”. It was so if the whole deal went up in fire and explosion, a tug could grab that wire and tow the ship away from the dock.
