  1. Finally the Vasa is finished. Thanjs for all the support during the build. Started in 2011 but had a long stop due to various private issues. Next model will be a Fluyt from Kolderstok models
  2. Finally rigging is finished Now only a few items on punchlist
  3. question to all other Vasa builders: is there any record which sails have been on the Vasa during her maiden trip in 1628? I have some input from a animated movie of the Vasa Fore mast: lower and middle sail Main Mast: middle sail Mizen mast: lower (triangle sail) I am working to start with the sails also and intend to have only the saile as used on the maiden trip
  4. On the Dutch forum we had a lot of discussions about this. I decided to use the light colored ropes for thd ratlines, also I like this combination more myself
