Much impressed!
AN HI Tim yea im pleased but ive got to fit this keel wheight first before i can do any fitting out to improve her stability as i dint need the keel wheight on my nimitz as she dint have much super struckure but tigers super struckure is quite heavy so now ive got to whatch her top wheight she was'nt too bad on stability in the tank but too make sure a keel wheight will be nessasary as i pulled her over to about 15 degreess an then let her roll back to up right an its in a coming pic that she took 3 gentle rolls to be upright so that about right but there will be more exsperimenting at the pond before i can pour over her the champers lolFantastic news....now you can get her off the slipway and start fitting out In earnest. Don’t forget to crack the champagne over the bow though LOL....
