    Many centuries watertransport was the fastest and most comfortable way of traveling on the coasts and along the big rivers in Europe. By towing with horses along the rivers and canals. By sail across the open waters.
     
    The statenjacht was the Rolls Royce of this passenger ships. Used to move fx company executives or other VIPs from place to place to execute their jobs.
     
    It was the time of the Barroque. So this ships were fitted out with most comfortable state cabins, bedrooms, kitchens, and last but not least magnificently decorated.
     
     
    At first I had in mind to build the HMY Mary from 1670. Only her decorations and paintings were very complicated.
     
    The Utrecht, however, seems to me a bit simpler decorated. Moreover, in the books of Seawatch books are very good plans of this ship.
     
    I build the Utrecht in scale 1:36. As POF model. However, I'm doing the frames of10mm plywood. Since the frames are not seen through the planking, solid wood is too good for this job in my eyes.
     
    Some shots from yesterday.

    Next job was modelling the cabin doors.
     
    To make the door handles was no big problem. I did solder a 1mm brasswire into a 2mm brasstube.

    Modelling Gianna or Aga I had used 0,50 / 1mm planks.  At the Utrecht I use pearwood 12mmx2mm.To work with this kind of planks  was a new experience. They are very hard and difficult to form. 
     
    Now the outsite planking is finished. Here are some pictures from yesterday.

    Modelling the wales.
     
    To determine the location of the main wale I did use a copy of the sheer profile plan. 
     

     
    The location of the main wale
     

     
    This copy was the base for modelling the wales. 
     

     
    I wasn't able to bend the bow parts of the wales, about it I have made it by sawing. I bend the long parts of the wales and later on the planks after immersing it in water. For the heat I use a soldering iron with a surface designed for bemding modelplanks
     

     
    The distanz between the main and lower wale is one plank.

    The crew mess is done, and so I can install the deck beams above. A particularly interesting point for I had to make the frame of the the skylight.
     
    After some thought, I'll plank the deck only on the starboard side. So the interior is still to be seen. Therefore I have the knees of the deck beams on the portside installed from here.          The frames of the wals of the Great Cabin     Cheers Hartmut

    Making the interrior.
     
    First I made the crew's mess to exercise. The walls were built in the carpenter manner.
     
    At first the base and the stems, which are then filled with plywood.
            Messdoor       To find out the right color scheme is not so easy. In the Baroque intensive colors were typical . According to historical sources, and also the pictures from the construction of the replica I use carmine red, cadmium red, light yellow ocher, dark green and prussian blue. This colours were combined with gold at the Statenyacht.   After several attempts I did now use tempera by Schminke and Lucas. Carmine red for the stems, cadmium red for the walls and yellow ocher for the floor in this area                 Cheers Hartmut
