Great job J3nsen It looks great

. I have tried to make a ship in sketch-up. AND IT IS HARD!!!! especialy the hull.

Ok...
The chairs on the bridge - with wheels?!? No way, we had some of those on the ship when i sailed as a cadet, and the only way to use such chairs was to tape the wheels or to dismantle the wheels. Change the chairs to something mounted to the floor.

and the Apple computers... nice idea, but do you have any professional maritime software (ECDIS, loading, ballast or engine monitoring working on apple? NO. Change these fancy apple design screens to something else - like some nice LCD screens connected to the pc work stations with electronic charts with radar and engine monitoring on the other. Make one chair for the deck officer/navigator and the other next to him for the engine officer - both of them working side by side on the bridge, that's modern ship design!

The other pictures of the vessel are great - good work!

Very good work there. Did you say you had created this from your head? If so you have a very good imagination

Can't wait to see the finished product

A truely amazing piece of work there - well done

Just a few suggestions:-

(1) As previously said, take the wheels off the chairs
(2) You need an aft mast, the forward one is great above the bridge, but to comply with the light regulations you would need a second mast, higher and astern of the first. Suggest a spar mast at the back of the accomodation?
(3) Don't forget your port, starboard and stern lines
(4) Nice decor - other thoughts are Lifebuoys? Draught marks Forward and Aft (Most ferries have about 6.4m when fully loaded - 6.2 fwd, 6.4 aft) The Man Overboard Lifebuoys just aft of the bridge on both sides.
(5) An anchor housed on either side of the foc'sle - this one is tricky, but would make the ship look so much more realistic.
(6) The bridge - if you need I can probably get some pictures of my bridge? It is quite similar - mind you all bridges are the same now.

Otherwise this has to be the best independant design that I have ever seen - congratulations
Keep up the cracking work.

Steve
