The ship model — William B Ritchie

Wil was also a nautical engineer remember? There was a picture of Wil by his model ship but here are a few other ones sent to me by Dianne Grant. Dianne inclosed a nice little note that explained that Wil worked on this ship model for 15 years. Everything was built from scratch, the engine and propulsion system works but he never had a chance to finish the super structure. This project was given to her by Wil and now it sits in her basement, unfinished but absolutely perfectly constructed.
