    Hello all,

    Just curious if anyone might have any plans for this little Dutch Light Cruiser?

    Tugboat- I heard you had a link to a Japanese website for ship plans and I was wondering if you might post the link so I/we can see what else might be out there? Thanks!

    Mack

    The de Ruyter plans will require more than a little cleaning up; I'll add them to the list to do.

    There is a profile Morksi for that cruiser, which I have.
    The lines are a little...ummm..sparse, but I understand there is a new edition with new drawings.

    These are usually quite good

    The plans on my hard drive have like 12 frames, is that the same as your Profile Morskie?

    No there is only 8 -- most unusual for a profile Morskie. I understand that the new drawings are from the builders plans so should be much better.

    A set of plans is available from the Dutch defense department for something like 20 Euros... I think they're in 1/200 scale.

    KK, thanks Tugboat. Beats the photos I have of a model kit, as that's currently it for my reference material.
