When I was growing up wanted everything my older brothers had. So when my grandfather made them a wooden boat to play with I wanted one too. A few weeks later he gave me this boat which he made especially for me. I was a little disappointed because this wasn't what I expected, it was far too beautiful! I was afraid to play with it and break it... I'm not sure if I ever properly thanked him for making this piece of craftmanship for me.
Prachtig die boot. Wat een geluksvogel. Mijn kleermakersopa kwam niet verder dan een slechtzittend maatpak voor mijn 5-jarige broertje:)
