I am only now understanding this post. I did not realize that youtube now offers multiple languages. How fantastic.

NRG has agreed to post a video log which i am presently indexing. With 134 videos it is taking much longer that i thought as i now have to watch each one and make notes.  The first few were very primitive. So yes a index and log is essential.

David i will add a note to the written  description. That the good thing about youTube in that it provides a section  to make corrections and editions. As always i truly appreciate the feedback.

Here are my ship notes. I went back on the book but David does not give an explanation why he beefed up the sides at the top and bottom. 

This was the design that David has in the book. It was not explained but my guess is that this was added to the top and bottom of the ladder where the most pressure exists. You can ask David next time you see him.

Not sure what you mean Alan, the step actually goes in three more beams that are not yet installed. The only thing behind the step are some blocks on the deck and the bulkhead. 

Steps

 Coming  along nicely

Well done Henry. Great model.

Johnny

thanks you for your feedback. I have past your comments on to the owner of the model and leave it to them to figure it out. Thanks for taking the time

best regards

Thats all i have. The owner of the wreck seems happy with what we sent so  i will leave it there . Thanks for all the help.

Hi Jan The model has 4 mast as does the Arizona, so perhaps its the Arizona and not the Peruvian 

John Longstaff found a much better match. The key is the shape of the bow.

I think  got it spot on Jan. Thanks so much, i will pass on the good news

A friend was just given this damaged model and was wondering if i knew anything about the model or the original ship. Anyone have an idea?
