I don't suppose you could persuade the cox to bring Shannon up the Trent to Beeston Marina? I've just bought a new camera. Maybe the spare seat in the donkey cart from Douglas to Peel already has your name on it, in which case good luck and happy birthday! I was 60 over 16 months ago and I don't get my bus pass until September. I got to have a sail on her this morning a short one from the pen at Fleetwood RNLI to the Wyre dock, for lifting out.but boy what a treat.my daughter enjoyed it too.Ĭheck out that bus pass, mate. Posted by Kimosubby Shipyards on 09:29:23: If there is a way to amend the original message, it is eluding me at the moment.Įdited By Colin Bishop, Website Editor on 18:51:44 Good to see people looking at my posting. I should have been more careful before publishing. Just got in and read the comments (emails) and yes you are all correct the model is 47" and not 37". Hope to take a good look around, and who knows, might get a quick trip out too! She's arriving here for my birthday, I'm qualifying for my bus pass on the 12th - so what's so glorious about that. The Shannon is in Fleetwood at the moment, having some slip plates fitted to her bum.she came in last night and will be craned out iday she'll be heading over to your neck o' the woods.Isle of Man Still, its a ery nice looking Tyne from your pictures, and although I was brought up on Oakleys and Merseys, in the Irish Sea we always think of the Tyne as the best sea boat - especially in a following lumper! So a 1/12 Shannon would be 42.6" or 1.083 metres. The new Shannons will be numbered " 13-001" as they are 13 meters long. Could you have got your dimensions mixed before, as you were quoting 47' for a Mersey at 1/12 and now are quoting 37' for a Tyne at 1/12? Your previous posting was for a Mersey class, Norman, and their numbers are " 12-012" etc the 12 being 12 metres, whereas the Oakley class numbered " 37-016" their length being 37 feet. Got to agree with Neil (and I'm RNLI myself), Tyne class are 47 footers, thats why their numbers are " 47-006" etc the 47 is the boat length, in this case in feet. Hi Norman if it's 37 inches long, it will have been built to 1:16th scale as the Tynes were 47' long and if built to 1:12, the model would also have been 47 inches long.nice model just the same.and would go well with Slipways 1:16th Trent and Tamar boats.Įdited By neil howard-pritchard on 22:30:28Įdited By neil howard-pritchard on 22:31:28 Took 9 months to build and Hull tested for water resistance.ĭue to size of model this will be a pick-up only from Norwich.Įmail me for any further of model corrected to 47 inches - ColinĮdited By Colin Bishop, Website Editor on 18:51:06 Housing space in back and cockpit compartments for engines and gears. Large Model 47" long, 11"(33cm) wide by 30"(75cm) high including ariels. Scratch Built from orginal RNLI Imperial Plans.to 1/12 scale. Maybe this is somehow as oddly soothing as the Minecraft music and I'm missing the boat.Model Lifeboat RNLI RNLB Tyne Class - Ruby and Arthur Reed - Cromer The massive scale has got to make this a slow burn. The Russian gaming page Ты в теме игры! has a walkthrough (sail through?) video below you can take a look at and see if you disagree. To captain a huge vessel that takes miles to make a course correction takes careful planning, but the Great Lakes are so.great. Sure, it would be fascinating to travel through the Soo Locks in real-time and sail the waters where the Edmund Fitzgerald and so many other ships fell victim to the Great Lakes. Sail past some of the most legendary locations on the lakes and use the lighthouses and range lights to guide you on your way.

You've never felt as free as you do on the bow of a ship on Lake Superior. Our brain's reaction time peaks at age 24. A 124-year-old could play Great Lakes Freighter as you are the captain of a massive freighter ship sailing the Great Lakes IN REAL TIME. In fact, reactions and reflexes do slow down as we get older. Some of today's games are lightning-fast and can be difficult to follow for more seasoned (read: "older") gamers.
