I used to work in the BBC TV News picture library and we had thousands up thousands of pictures like that in the basement. We could still access most of them within five minutes. too.

- SimpleSailorTenienteThanks cheddarman. Looks like the same boat, has the same name but in the link it is in Agios Nikolaos Crete which is just round the coast from Elounda. It is definitely a Turkish Gulet.Le gusta a hermank and AlessandroSPQR and
- FredComandanteI try and keep mine as they would be in real life, this is just one of my tugs.
The reason they are so bright is that a few of the members of my old club could not see the duck house in day light, let along a model boat. - IsaacTenienteIf you are looking for very low cost lighting ( that is not scale ), I purchased extra blinking bicycle lights that are battery powered. These are small cubes that emit red or white and I am sure others as well.
I just place it on my boat and let it go at my pond. They are bright and fun to watch.

- LewZAlmirantePeejay, no barge for this one as it (real one) is a "stoplog" boat that operates at the Little Goose Dam on the Snake River out in Washington State (US). It is used to prevent logs and debris from entering the lock an intakes for the hydro-electric generators. The real one is owned by the US Army Corps of Engineers.
I'm thinking of making a bunch of logs for it to move around. Did you notice the crew man on the bow with a logging pole?

- roycvAlmirante de la flotaHello Garth, the puffers did most of their trade on the Forth and Clyde canal in Scotland, and were known as Clyde Puffers.
But they have been in existence since 1856 to 1939. There is loads of history on the Internet.

- Sinc5508Marinero capazHi Garth.
It was a great day and the weather was just perfect! Good seeing your boat. It's a beauty! 👍 Here are another couple of pictures for you.
An early present for my 60th birthday from my dear woman.
It started at 11 a.m.
The weather was great, great visibility, sunshine and around 23 degrees warm. So perfect.
And every now and then a stiff breeze
First on board, there was a CAP SAN DIEGO coffee mug.
It was immediately filled with coffee and a nice Franzbrötchen.
For lunch there was spaetzle with sliced meat and for coffee there was more coffee and muffins with cherries or blueberries.
Finally get on board.

Our son insisted I accompany him and have a look at the Devonport Maritime Museum. Well worth it, with models of a lot of historical vessels, from clinker rowing boats through to windjammers, naval vessels and the evolution of ferries to the mainland.
Models include Slocum's 'Spray', SS Southern Cross, the oldest clinker dinghy in Australia, build using Huon Pine, and thought to be approx. 140 years old, and the Cutty Sark, which plied wool from Sydney to the UK.
Well worth the trip.
- peterdSubtenienteI have to admire the courage of the older sailors and their vessels. There are over 1000 wrecks around the island.
- peterdSubtenienteRoycv, I have just checked to see if i had more on the Spray, however only found one from a little further away. It gives a better look at the hull and deck. I have attached anyhow.
Also attached is a photo of the deck etc of the Lady Nelson. There is a replica in Hobart which is popular for harbour sailing or adventure voyages.
The original was built on the Thames and launched in 1798.
