    Correction I goofed, The ship is the HMS Bounty, not HMCS, i.e Her Magesty's Ship, not Her Magesty's Canadian Ship - Brits would not be amused

    Very cool. I love the big ships. They make your heart race just looking at them.

    I quite like the ship framed by the bridge. If it were mine, I'd likely straighten the bridge's left support column as it slopes to the left.
    Hope that may help

    Cool story, although sad she's gone. If she's a replica, and built in Canada... then maybe HMCS isn't such a mistake. In fact it seems more proper to me. If the Brits want it... let them build it
