For the last 15 years, I have worked on the registration of Danish church ships. In cooperation with the Diocese authorities of Funen, Ribe, Haderslev and Aarhus I have registered the church ships, described and photographed them, as well as researched their full history. At this time there are approximately 600 church ships in these Diocese authorities.
 
  Additionally I have examined and restored many church ships for parochial church councils and insurance companies. Furthermore, I have restored ship models for private owners, for shipping companies and for museums in Denmark and Greenland.
