Wonder if they have a 'buy it now'?

Re: GM Ship
 

HMS Campbeltown looks the best IMO, could moor it on the river Blackwater. Whatcha think?

Re: GM Ship
 

Now remind me, which way do I spin the tiller to turn left?

Re: GM Ship
 

How do you spin a tiller? Did you mean which way do I turn the helm? Or move the tiller?

Re: GM Ship
 

Sorry sailor, I'm all at sea with such things.

Re: GM Ship
 

It's OK Ad! For future reference........

Which way do I spin the tiller to turn left?

In nautical terms........

Which way do I move the tiller to take a starboard tack?

And before anyone gets all clever with the inevitable "port is left you idiot" type nonsense.:smt014

If you turn to your port side, you are on a starboard tack and vice versa!;)

The only good thing about the Army was all that free sailing!:)

Re: GM Ship
 

Blah blah blah turning left and right in English!

Re: GM Ship
 

I always preferred larboard to port.

Re: GM Ship
 

It's all somewhat academic as it'd be too wide to go about on the Blackwater anyway. Will be spending a lot of time in reverse.
