    Guess I should introduce myself here as well...
    Hello,
    Just a college guy from Oregon looking to get into the hoby. Well, more than looking into at this point as there is a Tiger class battlecruiser slowly taking shape in the shop on campus. Hopefluly this summer I will be able to get up to your area and get to try it all out, maybe even with Tiger herself.

    Im not familiar with that ship. What class is it? If you need any help with anything on it let me know. Or anybody else in the club. All of the veterans are very knowledgable.

    I think you'll be real happy with the Tiger, you're welcome at any of our events, with or without a ship

    I'm probably the closest active captain and I'm planning on visiting Vancouver in the next month or so. Maybe I could swing by and we could chat about your ship.
