Summer Holiday Sail, MossVale 2004 Photo Gallery

  Following a restful Christmas, a few of the gang got together for a sail at Southern Highland Wines on Tuesday the 28th of December 2004. Not a huge turnout but a fun relaxing day all the same. It proved to be a great day for test running of some new models as well.

Shane Doyle's new model. One of the few merchant ships joining TF72.

Craig Laughton's HMAS HAWKESBURY, a HUON Class mine hunter.

With the channel clear of mines Shane's model can proceed on her maiden voyage.

Mine hunters aren't just handy for mines. They can also sweep hats after pat Couch lost his into the lake following a gust of wind.

Shane keeps an eye on his ship whilst Russ keeps an eye on the club's newest member. She actually slept through most of the day anyway.

A rest following her first sea trials.

Some of the detail on Shane's fine new command. Only a few more parts to do and three more of those bloody cranes to make!.

CURL CURL a Manly Ferry built by Geoff Eastwood of Sydney.  A truly beautiful model.

A KRIVAK III KGB Boarder patrol Frigate along with a NANUCHKA Missile Corvette.

INS GODAVARI also by Geoff Eastwood.  A very unusual Indian Frigate based on the British LEANDER Class.

Michael Brown's HMS TARTAR not quite completed.

Three very interesting classes of vessels, but all built for a similar role in their respective navies.
