Good Day All
« on: February 25, 2006, 10:16:46 PM »
About 20 years ago I bought several plans for different boats that I thought that I might like to build one day, my life has finally slow down enough for me to start building them.

I've decide to build the paddle steamer 'Zulu', and was looking for information on paddle steamers, when I came upon your site. What a wonderful site. It's great to be able to talk to other with the same hobbies and exchange information and ideas.

Keep up the good work.

Welcome Richard
I have attached a picture of Zulu and a link
http://www.steamboats.com/museum/models6.html

I also have built or am in the process of building this model. You can see photos of it at

http://community.webshots.com/myphotos?action=viewAllPhotos&albumID=548258219&security=rPnTKJ

It has been packed for 5 years and I just unpacked it the other day. It needs repair from the move and I am not finished with it yet. Holler if I can offer any assistance.
Take care
Don
