Excellent Simplon Website - CGN Swiss paddlers

[PJ]

It's quite a time since I visited Ian Boyle's Simplon Website and when I did last evening...what a TREAT!  He's done a fantastic job updating it and it provides a masterful online reference.  If you want a totally enjoyable couple of hours, grab a cup of coffee, (or that strange brew our "dan undahs" drink), and surf through some lovely images.

Check out the very early paddlers on Page 1 - Paddle Steamers 1822-1886 for modeling inspiration.

Here's one of my favourites
