No problem! :thumbs_up_1:

I know I dropped the ball a while back with some requests. If any of you made any that I didn't follow through on please remind me and I'll make sure to take care of them this time.

Cliffy B - I just checked out your photos - really good shots of a lot of the gear. Not that I've got a schedule (as I mentioned to you earlier), but any luck with the .pdf I sent you of BB62's Ribbon Board? Once again, no rush, I'm just curious if it was any help to you.

Thanks,

Hank

ps - your shots clearly indicate that BB64's port stern tub was configured much differently than BB62's for the '80s commissions.

The PDFs will be fine, just need to get to making them :thumbs_up_1: I'll have some time off later in the month so I should be able to knock them out then.

Cliffy B - Great!! I was hoping that those would be sufficient for what you needed.

This is a repost from Iowa fans. I would appreciate it if someone who had access to an Iowa-Class take a few measurements of the capstan & wildcats, hawsepipe (length and maximum height), and anchor chain. I am familiar with the sketch found at colosseumbuilders.com, but the measurements don't seem to add up.

Additionally, a profile picture of the hawspipe would be very helpful.

Thank you,
Sergio Morariu

Hi Sergio,

Sorry for the late reply and my absence during the move and subsequent resettling. I can get you measurements and photos soon if you still need them. Just let me know which ones you need.
