MOC/WIP Fairplay IX en XI TUGBOAT in scale 1/60

[KD123]

What a great way to fully emerse yourself into your build subject than to take a ride in the real thing.   Nothing can beat real life experiences which I'm sure will help you through your next build. 

You sir are a true Lego AFOL ambasador and role model for all to grow interest in LEGO.

Many thanks for your great and kind words. I learn so much from every trip onboard a vessel i have build and this trip was no exception.

The captain Henk and i had many questions and conversations how the real ship works and he wanted to know how i have build it and translated in Lego. He have told me that all the 4 captains on the IX and XI have follow the progress from the begin and where              overwhelmed what's possible with Lego in scaled modeling.

Because it was so good weather on Saturday, that between the towing jobs i stand on the deck and enjoy the view and weather and my father take some picture of me i did't know.
