I once saw the actual ship sailing into Halifax Harbour as a kid and watched
the shows of course. Your little model and the lyrics had me humming the tune
and remembering the plastic model kit of Calypso I built as a kid. Are you
useing instructions or drawings from that (or any) kit to make it?
Anyway, it looks great and now I need to go home and watch the segment on my
Finding Nemo DVD with Jean-Michel Cousteau Dunn dunn da-dunn, da-da-da
da-da-dunn ...

You lucky dog.
I built the model way back when (a model with LOTS of little additional items,
like a camera sled, the helo, the Sea Fleas, and the diving saucer.) But that
was a while ago.
I used some reference from the Cousteau Society
webpage, and I have a book (that seems to have lost itself in my workroom) that
is about Calypso. While I didn’t particularly use the book on the microship,
it will be used when I begin work on the minifig version, as the book has deck
plans and other information.
Thanks!
Joe
