I'm working on this same kit (build log coming shortly). I reinforced my keel with scrap wood and also used bits of scrap to create reinforcing struts between the bulkheads and also added a couple of blobs of green stuff putty to that narrow keel section in the stern to further strengthen it when it came time for fairing.
It looks like you're well on your way with this one. I really enjoyed planking mine, and the rabit that I cut into my keel wasn't nearly so nice as the one you've made.

Thank you for that info I'll get right to that but I have one problem that I'm looking at I need to install the main rail my plans it does not show any pictures that I have to cut the main rail so I'm not sure if it's a straight piece or if it's curved in some sections I figured I could just cut it from the plans and put it on the peace wood cut it out but it does not show that so I'm kind of stuck right there

Had a little mishap happened last night cat was jumping around caught the back of the boat and broke it right off so on this boat at the back when building it be very careful because it will break off very easily that's one part of the ship that really needs to be strengthened up first before you work on it at the back at all just letting other people know

Frank - I occasionally put the reverse attachment on my vacuum & blow them clean. I don`t have any pets,so no worries there.
O.C. - yes, it is a real forest of masts & yards.
There are 12 ships on that table,3 more in my living room,& 1 more in one of my bedrooms! I have given a few away & it looks like I need to get rid of a few more. I`ve been thinking of giving some of the older,not-so-nice ones a proper funeral after stripping off some of the reusable fittings.
If you are wondering about the Admiral,there is none. I have been single since 1980,so what better to occupy my time!
