I just thought it would be a little bit unusual to show the stern or Bow names on some of the ships built at Leith. The ship names are self-explanatory so just look through them, perhaps you worked on some of them, I know that I did.
Keep checking back to see more as we upload them to the Blog.

I love this picture showing the build of a wooden ship in Bellingham, Washington State sometime in 1916.
The foreman stands on the supporting timbers over the ships keel, hands in pockets, somethings never change.
In this ever dangerous world, sometimes you may just wish to sit down and read a good book, if you have a love for ships or the sea with a historical twist then the Davy Stuart series of Historical Maritime books is for you. Starting with the first book,
Fight or Flight
He then wakes up wounded on a ship, told he has to flee from
home, his family and
He is like a rudderless ship stumbling from one fight to
another, is his best friend really a friend or his worst enemy.
Davy travels on going from adventure to battle, never really
knowing who he really is, his encounter with Voodoo leaves him even more
confused.
His adventure take him half way around the world, then he
lands in post Civil war America, in the South with his Black Friend. He owes
his life to Sol.
As he continues his quest to find the woman he intends to
marry, things are never how they seem.
