Aargh, Matey. She be a very fine craft indeed, says me.

Finastkind, Jens. Good work. Is it your design?

I designed and built a little pram cradle boat for my son. He didn’t use it long but it’s a nice thing to look at, too. It became the ark for all the stuffed critters.

BEAUTIFUL WORK JENS. THE LITTLE SWASHBUCKLER WILL BE SAILING IN NO TIME. YOUR NEXT PROJECT SHOULD BE A PEG LEG AND WOODEN EYE PATCH. GIVE HIM THE GEAR.
