The Oars, well. I wa sout bid on a large lot on Ebay, but the buyer was
kind enough to sell me half the lot, then I purchased 10 at a very
affordable C3 from wbuhr.de on Bricklink, the rest were cannablised from our
rowing boat fleet. I had many left over as I ran out of Crew and deck space.

The port will have to wait till funds improve. I also have to find a source
of tower tops from the Orient them 'Scorpion palace'.
