More pics.

 

Placing the deck on was not easy, after it was fixed I put teak finer on it.

That was more to my liking.

I had to make a few holes in the deck to spot if I have water getting in below but also to put lead in the holds for ballence.

And started on the deck fittings.

The Sprrow sail boat in the making as well.

Thanks Popeye for liking the planking.

I thought it was wrong, halfway through I had to start from the top.

lt worked out in the end.

No more pictures, somehow I fotgot to take more.

I did enyoy the build.

Next to do is finishing 2  whirligigs and a the Tram 17 I am building from scratch.

Hope I am aloud to show a picture of the tram.

 

My plan is to built an Albatros W4 water plane, the plans are almost finished.

No for flying but to cruise on the pond.( I am very bad in flying )
