Yes, it is in Erie Pa. A couple years ago I started making the wooden model
of the ship. I am one of those guys that would squint his eyes & try to
look at the ship as though I were standing on the deck. I realized that it
might be more interesting if I could produce a series of images that
accomplished the same task. I started modelling in POV-Ray using the ship
plans provided with the wooden ship kit. Later I ordered the ship plans
from the Niagara web site & started to do research on other ships and ship
building techniques.

Short answer....no connection at all! :)
