A Mirror 16. An interesting boat, they could probably sell a lot of plans, if they made them available.

A quick search on boatdesign.net found this https://www.boatdesign.net/threads/m...6-build.66155/ .
I've oft thought about one, they were great boats to sail.

No need to negatively sell “art” to give compliments. I also make “art”. Like boats, there is a lot of different kinds and types of art, and someone likes them all.
The one doesn’t detract from the other.
Thank you all for the kind words. And thanks for the cool info on the Mirror. The big ones are cool, but I’d want a small one, if it were available to me.![]()
Wow, Rob - you really are getting great results working with your art medium (media [?]) I enjoy seeing each of your works as you post them ! ! Keep on posting them, please . . . .

Nice work.
For the avoidance of confusion, that replica at Whirtby isThere is now also a full size static steel copy at Whitby.Our authentic replica of HMS Endeavour - which was sailed by Captain James Cook during his scientific expedition of 1768 - has been traditionally built by Whitby craftsmen and stands in the water some 40% of the ships original size.
It really is quite difficult to build an ugly wooden boat.

It’s been a pleasure sharing these with you all. Thanks for the kind words, everyone. See you in October.![]()
Thanks, Rob. Great pictures!
We need a song. A Boatober carol that can celebrate the season!

There are two kinds of boaters: those who have run aground, and those who lie about it.
Dude!
Shirley you will visit before frikkin' October?
If only for a doodle...
It is interesting comparing Endeavor's tidy cat 21st century backdrop to what might have been 2-1/2 centuries ago
The planet is crowded, Ramshackle is dead, and I miss it.
It has always been my challenge to create a thing that looks 100 years old as soon as it is finished but not in a faux way, in an authentic way.
