dgbot Posted February 11, 2015 #601 Posted February 11, 2015 Congratulations Jesse on a nice model and a enjoyable and learning log. You did wonders and taught several how to overcome some problems. Have you decided on another project?

michael mott Posted August 27, 2015 #602 Posted August 27, 2015 Jesse, I was looking for some information on sailmaking for my Pilot cutter and was pointed to your build, which I had forgotten, you did some amazing work on your sails. I finished going through the rest of the build since I last checked in. Congratulations late as it is on your beautiful model, your time on getting the sails looking right paid off in spades as the saying goes.

JesseLee Posted August 27, 2015 Author #603 Posted August 27, 2015 Thank you Michael! When I first got done with them I thought I had over focused on them & messed them up. Turned out to be the best ones I've ever done. I definitely would use much thinner material next time.

SawdustDave Posted August 29, 2015 #605 Posted August 29, 2015 Jesse, I'm just now getting around to re-visiting this fantastic log after meeting you at the show and having the pleasure of seeing your SM up close and personal. Glad I came back to your log, as it refreshes me on just what a beautiful work of art you have created here. Thanks my friend.

mispeltyoof Posted December 2, 2018 #607 Posted December 2, 2018 I understood that the Scottish Maid was built for speed and was used to transport fruit from the Azores back to the UK so did sail in warm seas for much of her life. Quote
