SS Melanie II
FJF:
Thanks. Looking forward to see your Tribal. Maybe in a video?
Carole M Pluckrose:
Are you talking about the SS Melanie which was torpedoed off Robin Hood Bay in 1918? If so, my Grandfather was a Leading Seaman on her. He wasn't one of the 5 confirmed dead at the time. Shortly after in hospital in Plymouth he surcommed to his injuries. He was Leading Seaman Bond S G RNR. I don't know much about her but think she was a c coaler out of Russia.

Dear fellow modellers,
A few months ago I decided to pick up a project that I wanted to go for already long time ago. I wanted to set the scene for my SS Melanie II.
The attached shows the display at our annual model boat show.
More details and maybe some extension are planned...
I hope you like it and thanks for the many views and likes of this thread.
Regards,
Frank

Hi, To those who remember me, I‘m back !
After moving house and personal circumstances. Then two builds that were my own hulls ( HMS Fareham and HMS Ickford). I have decided to build a DEMS merchant vessel S S Kirkpool which as sunk by the commerce raider Thor in 1942. Unusual for a DEMS it had depth charges. Along with the 4” gun. Good to be back !!
