tying up loose ends

Checking my posts just for fun I noticed that I never ended this thread properly, although a considerabel time has past since the last post.
Well, hereby the last of the small workhorses as shot and photoshopped by Emiel:

There are some eastern eggs in these 'paintings' For instance the barrel floating in the water on the busses-plate. It bears the inscription: Hoving faked it.

The two ships lying in a calm show the near absence of wind. I will soon start a short report on how I tried my hand on a big ship in a calm and what lessons we can learn from using the right material for sails.
Hope to be back soon.
