This little fishing boat, built from lager cans, is the redeeming feature of the Trawlerman, an otherwise pretty awful Cleethorpes pub. Read about it on my pub blog if you'd like to know more.
Except it's not a catamaran, and you'd have to be one of two very tiny people to actually sail it. And it almost certainly can't float anyway. Oh, and um, did I mention the dust? Ohh, the dust.
Straight out of camera, though I should probably crop off some of the top. Note to self: be more disciplined. ....starting tomorrow.
My Australian model of the preserved and still operational Norwegian coastal ship MS Sandnes.
She operated from 1950 to 1974 on the night route from Sandnes/Stavanger to Bergen, returning the following night.
My model is scratchbuilt from just a dozen photographs, with plans drawn up by myself.
