Excerpt from the May 2024 Logbook:
If you were asleep over the past few months you might have missed that there was a boat show at the Deltaville Maritime Museum last April 27th. It was hosted by the Deltaville Ship Modelers’ Guild and it their inaugural show. Five (six if you count Don Good) HRSMS members joined in and brought work to display. Other members also showed up in support throughout the day. While the Deltaville group consists of modelers and artists who primarily build vessels unique to the Chesapeake Bay—we saw a lot of deadrises, buy boats, and a skipjack or two—we also saw a few models of vessels that support other times and locals. Needless to say we had a great time and made new friends and some good contacts relating to model making techniques and sources. Can’t wait to do it all over again next year.
Webmaster’s note: the model show was part of a larger event, which explains the outdoor vendors and the egg sign I wish I’d purchased for my own flock.
