Help and Advice / Listing sisterships built for any given ship
« on: October 30, 2017, 05:06:52 AM »
Using the MIRAMAX database, I am trying to link a list of sisterships built along with any ship picture for which I've downloaded from the internet (don't worry, they are only for my use on my computer) - largely from SHIPSPOTTING site.
Wondering if anyone else has attempted this?
A CD of the MIRAMAX database is what I'm using - by carefully sorting LBP, shipyard links, names of ships which would be common to a ship line, the date of build, yard number, etc., etc.
Sometimes it is guesswork - and often MIRAMAX has a data field for "design", which obviously is very helpful.
Anyway, it is fun, but challenging!
