The Ship Model Forum

If you wish, I can send you a very rare fotograph of this ship.
Mail me your email dress, my adress: ceesvanderhoeven@casema.nl

Thanks! I'll do that!

See " Ship Models in Miniature" by Mc Narry. There you will find some data on building a model of this ship and the references that went with it.


[quote="MichelB"]Hi guys, on a whim, I'm looking for (line)drawings of the liner SS Waratah, which was lost at sea near South Africa in 1909 and remains one of the great maritime mysteries.

Even a simple drawing will do.

TIA![/quote]

I just noticed that she's strikingly similar in overal shape to the[i] Shinano Maru[/i] auxiliary cruiser being issued by Battlefleet models. [i]Waratah[/i] was launched in 1908 in Glasgow at a length of 465 ft, Shinano Maru was launched in 1900 in Glasgow at a length of 445 ft. What do you guys think, somewhat feasible?

All I could find was a oil painting.
