Congratulation Dan! Great job, nice looking boat you got here. Love that you solved the mystery of the ships whistle lol Hey, it looks great!

Thanks. It was a fun build that didn’t take all that long to complete. I’m taking a two week break, then I’ll get started on The Flying Dutchman 😁. It’ll be my summer project that will probably take until next year to finish. 👍👍

Dan, my grandfather and his brother had a boat building business on the Ohio River at Clarington Ohio. Mozena ship building!

No wonder you are building this ship! It’s in your blood. A tribute to your family heritage that will no doubt live on for generations beyond you. I sincerely appreciate your generosity and will put the funds to good use in my future builds as my journey continues in this very rewarding hobby. Thank you 👍❤️👍

I would love to offer to laser cut a small sign, that would be your family’s “Monzena” Ship builders. I could also laser a smaller Est. 1852 (or whatever year, or years they were in business.). Example: MONZENA Ship builders Est. 1860-1910 You can put it over the Chaperon with tiny brass screws or adhesive. I can send it and then you decide later. You can email me the details at: [e-mail] I’ll be on vacation for the next 3 weeks but will get it done upon my return home.
