5-4-2008: Featured Site for May
    Now that it is May it is time for a new 'Featured Site'. This link comes from a fellow member of the club (note to all: I gladly [insert shameful begging] take requests for 'featured' sites). While kits and used boats are probably the best way to start in our hobby, many captains eventually research and build a ship from scratch. For those considering a ship of the French Navy, the following link from the French Ministry of Defense is very useful as it contains scale plans and pictures of French ships. With a good xerox machine and the right scaling factor you can have scale plans to aid in the build:

I will also post this link in the "Related Sites" page reachable via the link in the menu above so it will be available even after I change the featured site in June. Enjoy!

4-17-2008: ITS HERE! TF144!
    Thanks to our hard working, extremely talented, and underpaid editor Lars, the first 2008 edition of the club newsletter Task Force 144 is now avilable online (it should also be going out in the mail pronto). You can access it via the "Members Area" and follow the link for TF144.
    Thanks again to Lars and also to the many fine captains who submitted pictures and articles for this edition. As usual, I'm off now to find a color printer and a quiet corner to read!

4-2-2008: NATS is Coming! NATS is Coming!
    The MWCI National Competition is indeed coming this summer. I know many captains are building ships or installing new components to make reliability or faster adjustments at the lake. You know you want to go! There is more complete information on the NATS Info Page.
