I considerd this for a while but it would have to be very small so as not to dwarf the dock and I am not as skilled as 'some' in that department... Thanks again and God Bless, Nathan (19 years ago, 14-Jun-05, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.pirates, FTX)

It's an incredible MOC, very well integrated, how (...) (19 years ago, 14-Jun-05, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.pirates, FTX)

Excellent attention to detail throughout. My personal favorites are (...) (19 years ago, 13-Jun-05, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.pirates, FTX)

Good interiors too, but I couldn't satisfy one of my favorite (...) (19 years ago, 13-Jun-05, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.pirates)

| Well Richie, that's certainly a 'big' ship there. However, one sidenote: The name should be 'Dodelijke Klompschoen' (notice the extra e) I am not exactly sure what the name is supposed to mean since 'Klompschoen' is not an existing dutch word. (...)
