Have put some green oil paint along the waterline and was about to mark the position of the 2 boats and add some Gel between the boats and dock ( the area I would not be able to get after boats fitted) THEN  LOOKED and thought what a clown. 
Have not put any form of protection against the dock wall - so looked for old tyres but had none, so have decided to do what I have seen in some small ports in the north of the USA - wood beams hung from the top of the dock by rope.

Have you just rediscovered this?
No Zak you know me flutter here flutter there - when I stop enjoying doing a model, just move on and then come back to it when the mood takes me  :P :P :P :P :P
Remember its for FUN not to have lots of finished models that you don't know what to do with. So make diaramas as they take a lot more time to do compaired to just making a plane or tank or ship  ::) ::) ::)

He would have said "do it correct or don't do it at all" and then given me one of his looks

Befor you ask Zak - YES I did bend the etch-brass rail on top of the turret to size and also bend out the 5 tabs to hold it the correct distance off the turret - and NO it looks no better than when the etch-brass was fitted  :-[ :-[ :-[
