Halfie: Unusual boat

Wednesday, 15 June 2011

Apart from the apparent lack of steerer there is something unusual about this boat. Can you spot it?

Sue said...: It's a warm boat though with two chimneys!; 15 June 2011 at 23:16
Roger Smith said...: Very nice, I have a feeling it's not 1/12 so maybe 1/16.
I assumed the forward chimney was engine exhaust.; 16 June 2011 at 01:46

Maybe I'm missing something, but I don't see why it should necessarily be so small, or am I just being blonde?; 16 June 2011 at 13:45
Vallypee said...: Unless, as Lesley says it's a model :) The mop looks a bit toy like!; 16 June 2011 at 13:46
Halfie said...: I shall respond to all of your comments in my next post, coming shortly. (I didn't say it was going to be difficult!); 16 June 2011 at 20:46
