A Message From The Owner

Dear Customers,

To start I want to wish the best for everyone. I hope each and every one of you are practicing safe social practices, wearing masks, and washing frequently. Also I want everyone to know that we here at Floating Drydock support those who are suffering during this very difficult time in our nation. Please be cautious while out and about, be attentive of advisories posted by your local officials and stay safe. Lastly I want to thank all of you directly. Things have been very trying during to current events involving Covid-19.

Please know We are still operational :)

As always were will continue to serve you all. We are still striving to launch the new website. The section of all of our Pamphlets is almost ready to set sail. We will test run it for a couple weeks and if all goes well we will launch another section in July which will be Books. In August I hope we can launch Decals. Then Parts (Including Chain, Anchors, and propellers), then Photo-Etch, and finally Drawings in December! That is what we are going to shoot for. As new pages come on line (and verified to work), corresponding pages of the original website will get decommissioned. As time progresses, the current FDD website will start to shrink and the new site will grow proportionately.

Lastly, we are in the process of trying to establish new parts. I have set up some preliminary artist who I am confident will produce a wide range of excellent accessories. After we get all of that we have a growing list of new products that will be unveiled that includes new books, new drawings, and new parts. We are extremely excited about the remainder of this year and next. In the end we are hoping to also to start repairing some of the older, lower quality (aged) prints to improve our product quality. We are trying to get two new printers as well. So we are working to give you fester service, wide product selection and improved quality. We are working everyday on all of these efforts with an almost singular work force. Thank you for your loyalty and you understanding as we strive to be better and better.

Thank you

Very Respectfully

Randy

Re-Released
CAMOUFLAGE 2 FLEET CARRIERS
Our newly re-printed camouflage 2, which has been out of print for several years is now available in CD format. This companion to our Camouflage 1 (see above) covers the US Navy's Fleet Carriers of WW2. This book goes into great detail on the dazzle camouflage applied to Fleet and Light Carriers. Camouflage 2 has been expanded and with over 143 photographs!! Each chapter is built around an official USN master design drawing. Each carrier (wearing that specific design) is then shown in numerous photographs, enabling the dazzle pattern to be viewed from several different angles. This includes aerial as well as sea level views.

Most photographs have never before been seen. Some are action pictures, and some full page. Some are invaluable close-ups showing structure, radar and rigging details. Additionally, there is a special supplemental chapter. It updates those schemes (discussed in the first book) of which we have uncovered material.
