Lachlan,
After spending just under 20 years on board, I am very reluctant to even read threads like this because, yes I will admit I do miss "The Black Pig"!
But, I finally decided to have a looky-see of your model!
WOW!!! It brought back many, many memories for me. The attention to detail, and foremost, to me at least, the accuracy, is incredible.
Yes, your model is after my time on board I believe, 1 foredeck crane missing, but the rest of it is amazing.
All I can say is, Thank you very much for your time, energy, effort and most of all for sharing.
Sincerely,
Rod
