We also launched a new and improved MAILFORM, try it!

28 March: Reports indicate that the frameset is in error. We know about this,
and it is caused by malfunction in the Freeservers frameset system. Apologizes.

of uncorrectly placed banners, please hit the "Reset Frameset" button, which
might help. If not, please reoprt it to the webmaster through e-mail or Mailform.

5 April: MB-Ltd is due to a re-organization renamed Mackay-Bogus Ltd.
This won't affect customers or orders.

30 April: We are soon about to launch a brand new design and
so on; that's why no updates has been done lately.

Late 30 April/1 May: The new design is partly launched although further
updates will be made within the next days. Please note that all pages aren't
updated; especially the different ship pages.
A new thing will also be added; a historical reference for each german ship; provided at
Michael Emmerich's Air, Sea and Land. If you have comments of any of these new updates; please mail us.
Unfortunately, Emmerich's site does only (not so 'only'...) cover Kriegsmarine ships
so the historical reference is just on the German ships.

At the same time we would like to inform you about the new SURVEY that will help us to get your comments! Fill it in now!

1 May: The Hipper drawing has been refined.

12 May: We have passed 1000 visitors; the business has turned out well. We have got several nice comments from pleased visitors. Thanks!

13 May (late evening): The failing css script for the menu has been changed into an dhtml-code.
This has been tested for good performerance, but do not hesitate to contact us if you recieve even the smallest error message.
