Looks like I have been spending more time building ships in bottles rather than diving. Up here in NY the winds kept us inshore for most of the month. Anyway, I just completed a replica of the Cornelia Soule in a bottle. The Cornelia Soule is a three masted schooner which was sunk off NY back in 1902. Thought some might enjoy my attempt at maritime art.

Again, I wish I had the artsy type of know-how to do this type of thing. I have always loved the whole Ship in a Bottle hobby and art.

Sorry, not for sale. I just make them for friends but they just take to long. Would have to charge to much money. I did however produce a downloadable ebooks which shows how to go about making your own. Check out the attached link if you ever want to give it a try.

This short You Tube video shows how the little ships masts are folded and inserted into the bottle.
