Every once in a awhile, great publicity seems to come your way unbeknownst! I enclose a Bristol Phoenix article about the RELIANCE and the wonderful work of Mike Mirman. I must also say that Mike is just one of the wonderful craftsmen working on RELIANCE that you can meet when you visit us at building 28 on the Museum campus. (I must correct one data point in the article, our model has ~0.6 of a mile of rigging. The original had ~18,000 feet of wire rope and manila lines) To show you the quality and quantity of Mike’s work, I also enclose a picture of some of Mike’s work that we’ve been tagging and kitting.
