Further north bud Highlander. How about yourself?
Iām Dutch, but my dad, who also reads this forum and lived in Aberdeen for a long time because of his offshore oil work, knew from the way you expressed yourself that you were Scottish.
Anyway. Good luck with your project. My dad and I am looking forward of seeing what you come up with.

I think this may be the first time someone has brought up physicality on this forum all because they didnāt like the advice they were given, but continues to tell everyone they are here for advice.
What boats have you built?
Iām guessing the commercial fishing may have been for Nephrops (considering username).
Half Schots, half Nederlands; opgegroeid in Schotland en geboren in Rotterdam ā wat me behoorlijk pittig maakt, haha. Ik waardeer je goede wil en kijk ernaar uit om de voortgang met jou en je vader te delen.
I will use this thread as an example among others to share this message, in my role and moderator/admin:
Purpose of the forum: to seek help or advice, share opinions, and exchange experiencesāboth positive and negative.
When posting, be prepared to receive perspectives that may differ from your own or from others. This diversity of viewpoints is valuable, as it can provide insights you may not have considered. You are not obligated to follow any advice given; participation is voluntary. However, it is important to appreciate that others invest their time to offer input.
Likewise, when providing advice, understand that it may not always be accepted or followed. There may be factors unknown to you influencing that decision. Allow others the space to explore their own approaches, even if you have had negative experiences in a similar situation. Share your perspective once; if it is not received, respect that and move on.
Above all, maintain respectful and neutral communication. Online discussions can easily escalate into unnecessary conflict. Keep in mind that you cannot fully assess another personās skills, experience, or background. Additionally, English may not be the first language for many participants, and this forum brings together people from diverse cultures. This diversity should be seen as a strength and an opportunity for broader understanding.
