That was some hard graft Dobbs. I can well understand that you made the last eight miles a little easier. Hope your crew got an extra tot at the end...

Yesterday's adventure had us once again battling an ebb tide and small craft advisory. The wind was again on the nose. We sailed 40 miles to go 20,...

Thanks Dobbs. I will have a look at that too. Rob.

Suzanne is still writing. Here's the link: https://suzanneanddobbs.blogspot.com/?m=1 Yesterday we needed to cover 23 miles as the seagull...

This is starting to get really exciting Dobbs. I am really looking forward to your exploits. Is Suzanne going to run her blog again? She should have...

Yep, that's the drawbridge. We had a ball right across the Center. We dinghied under the bridge to a public dinghy dock which happened to be right...

Thanks Dobbs, I'm going to get a larger chart of that area if I can. Found the Spar Creek Drawbridge. Anywhere near the Annapolis Yacht Club Activity...

If you head up the Severn River, then turn to port into Spa Creek, there's a mooring ball field off the west bank just past the drawbridge. That's...

Good! I am following your voyage on my map. Which part of Annapolis are you docking at? Rob.

Here Suzanne takes us south in the lingering effects of Ophelia while I do the dishes. Sunday morning the weather cleared enough (and enough...

Well done that man. To quote Forrest Gump,"when God gives you lemons make lemonade" Rob.

Congratulations on your win! :clap: Have a great time Dobbs, and don't forget to keep us up to date with pictures of your progress around the bay....

Aargh! I added a bit more shrubbery after all, then ran out the door to prepare for our Fall cruise on Grace, so it's going to be a bit before I...

Ditto what Rob and Jonas said. Sometimes the hardest part of detailing is knowing when it's time to stop. :)

I think they look great the way they are!

I think they look just fine Dobbs. Less is more in this case. Rob.

Coming down the home stretch. I've either got enough shrubs or need just a little bit more. I'm in the 'staring at it' phase. I'm inclined toward...

Dobbs,what you say took me back to when we took our lads up to the lake district when they were about eight and nine. All the photos I took seemed...

Thanks, Pete (Stumptonian) for the rep! You guys are making me blush.:embarass: Ever since Bligh introduced me to making terrain, every time...

Welcome Jim! From my experience in the US I have seen more people using the 1/700 scale Black Seas ships with other games than playing Black...

Thanks, Paul! And thanks for the double rep!

As Rob wrote, another superb battle!

Thanks for that AAR, Dobbs - well illustrated and well told a story.

More progress is being made. I'm trying to find a not too sparse/not too lush middle ground. Shrubs to come later.

Today we are joined by a new shipmate from the USA. He is Caedmon, aka Caedmon the Bold from Texas. Rob.

Good one Dobbs! I suspect that it is in fact British in origin.:happy: Rob.

Very entertaining, Rob.:clap: I must say that if it has American roots, it's not a tree that grows on the Chesapeake.:happy:

As it has been brought to my attention that not everyone is conversant with some of our more quaint English idioms, I felt that I should explain the...

Digesting Spanish Warships in the Age of Sail and trying to put together some notes on aces of the WWII PTO and suggested abilities. If Ares takes my...
