What a table! That Mary Jane ship is amazing? Is it a ship model picked up second-hand, did you build it yourself, or what?

Brilliant looking table and game.
"Peace" is that brief, glorious moment in history when everybody stands around reloading.

Cracking table.
But then I'm fan of a busy table.I do the progression from industrial to domestic.Gives such a more rounded feel.
I have to confess I've been avoiding building a tramp steamer as I'm too much of a butterfly at the moment.(I've a farm ,railway station,and pub to finish for my own table. Plus a castle and an 1889 flyer that are in various stages of denial) The "Katie Jane" has put the temptation to build one right up there again lol
Hat well and turely off to you.
It might be worth doing /adding couple of pic of the "Katie Jane"(But since Fram  he's just as likely to be fascinated with  the Hearth Robinson look of your fishing boat "Mary Jane" ;) )

Fram apologies the Mary Jane Fishing boat was picked up on ebay a few years back -= only just notced the name as its closeness to my tramp steamers - looks like all my ships are going to be called 'something' Jane

The fishing nets brought in like that make such a huge difference.
