[Ship Sim]

Nice pictures.

Hi NIN,
I’d like to see lakers in the sim because they have followed a different evolutionary path from most bulk carriers—somewhat in the manner of the animals of the Galapagos.
However, they need the Lakes and, hopefully the Seaway. I think that may have to wait for SS 2009, assuming that the new architecture permits locks and environments of larger extent.
Regards,
Marty

Did it ever strike you that some of your ships look a little bit too much like the Edmund Fitsgerald.

[NIN]

theres a few that were painted the same color, but build wise none of those are like the Fitz.

she only had one true sister, who was Bethlehem's Arthur B Homer.
the last picture is the Jackson, which was hull 302. (Fitz was 301)


Jackson, Hull 302






Even tho the jackson was the next boat built, they are almost completely different, once you look into details is amazing the vast difference there really is.

The sturns are the only simular thing

I thought the construction of the Pilot house looks a bit similar.

[NIN]

actually if you look at it, the jacksons is much wider.

It's the simplest things I don't notice.
