  1. I'm finishing the bragozzo and I've started to get my hands on the Mamoli Marseille kit. I really like the line of this schooner, much less its use as a training ship for gunners. At this point I was thinking of mounting some guns and making her a privateer schooner, or of not mounting any at all and making a merchant schooner ...... I'll have to think about it.
  2. Practically finished model, details of the rudder ......
  3. Yes, I confirm the presence of asymmetrical shrouds on the bragozzi, as can be seen from the drawing of the monograph .
  4. The asymmetry of the shrouds is even more evident at the bow, where the port shroud is absent....
  5. The asymmetrical shrouds of the mainmast, on the right is placed an extra block because this part is subjected to greater stress by the sail. When the sail receives the wind from the left it rests on the mast and the shroud is less tense.
  6. The "bragotto", a sliding rigging to orient the main sail.
  7. The laying of the luff cord on the sails .....
  8. the bow protection, made of galvanized sheet iron .......
