Title: The sloop "E. Seconds"
Post by: Wingnut on January 23, 2012, 01:58:00 AM
The first of the Ainsty Pirate ships. I heavily modified the hull to bring the windows up out of the water line a bit.
 five more ships to go for Spring-Recruits 2012!

I also used uncooked Alphabet Pasta to make the name on the stern stand out a little more.

And here I thought it had to do with the song that has the line "... hang on, Sloopy.  Sloopy, hang on..."

Gracias,

AAaaah thank you ;)

LAF is more useful than the Harrap's Shorter Dictionary which is unclear on this subject, I could'nt find any clue about this ship's name in it.

I pissed myself laughing when I saw the name of this thread. If you wanted to take it TOO FAR I would suggest a male to female crew ratio of at least 13 to 1 and name all the guys after players in the St Kilda Football team.

Follow the thread back to the blog, they only get worse.

She's a beaut!

The name is, well inspired! It just goes to show that LAF is an educational institution. History, literature, the arts...and porn terms life skills!


Can't wait to see the rest of the fleet!

Cheers
Andy

This is very true but don't tell this to people, they would run away: many people think that "educational" means "boring" :D
