Hi JoaoMarques,

I'm using Google Sketchup 7. 

And Carrara 5.0 for the rendering.

Regards,
Fred

Even though, the Dutch pilot society invested again in jet prop tenders instead of SWATH vessels. The jet propulsion vessels are easier and safer to get alongside with. With SWATH you basicly get one shot to get alongside in the proper position. With jet propulsion vessel you can still control the tender to get it right.

Finally found a picture of the new Dutch pilot tenders!


First one of the new series, currently built in the States.

Very nice! I would like to see that in SSE, being an SSHM and all that....
