• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

I'm very saddened to hear of this news. I'm sure we all have his tree sets, and I've used FS-shipyards on a number of occasions. It's people like this that have made FS the pleasureable experience it is today.

Blue skies, and thank you Ian.
 
But Ian's memory will not be lost. His widow, Tracey, decided to continue Ian's dream, his FS-Shipyards.org website. By continue to keep it alive, so will be the memory and spirit of Ian and his alter-egos. www.fs-shipyards.org, in case you're wondering !
