Hi my name is Ian Harper, or Flukie! I have been looking for different hobbies since the coronavirus outbreak. Remembering my Grandpa had a model sailboat collection, I took inspiration from him to look into model boats, and seeing as how I did an entire research paper on World War II navies, I found this site. I am excited to start building my first ship, and interacting with this community!
Good to have you. I am up north of Mill Creek, we have some folks south of seattle also. We battle up by the city of Snohomish, currently or if we want a long drive, Cle Elum. We are always looking for new captains round these parts. _Greg
I’m currently going to school in Seattle (back Home in Minnesota till may) and would love to come and watch a battle
Are there any upcoming events in Washington I could come and see how the hobby works and where to start?
Will have to wait and see once we can actually get to the ponds again. We will finalize the schedule then
Welcome Flukie This forum will give you much insight to building and battling combat warships. Reach out if you have any questions. There are many build discussions here that will help explain the hows and whys. Mark
