Hey Per, thank you very much. That's perfect. I do have only some drawings and trying to find out what it looks like. Up to now I found out that it exactly matches to the steam winch on Medea.

Dear friends, I'm looking for some information about the steam anchor windlass on the attached picture. It is supposed to be on the deck of steam yacht Medea(1904) Especially a view from the other(front) side would be very helpful. Thanks in advance Ilhan

Hi B.E. its ok. Your questions are right but I've no answer. By the time I've found the text about the leech lines and bunt lines. It was from "Mondfeld" and I am not able to comment on the reliability of this information. There are also no traces of foot ropes for that period. Maybe sails are not furled tight to the yard as we think of it but hold together somehow and the yard was lowered to the deck. For my model of Mayflower I've strictly followed R.C.Anderson. But for the period of Matthew there are lots of questions. Cheers Ilhan

There are two replicas. One of them based on drawings of Colin Mudie (See the article on NRJ). This is the Bristol replica. My drawings are based unfortunately on the other replica built at Bonavista.

Thank you very much my friends. Hi B.E. thanks for the tip. You are right but indeed there are too many dubious points with this ship. Even the belaying pins were most likely not in use at that period. . I've omitted some of them and also reduced the numbers but some of them remained. As source I've also an article from NRJ and Pastor's AOS "The ships of Christopher Columbus". But I must confess that I've not tried my best. (I don't remember exactly, I've read somewhere that leech lines do exist before the buntlines. But I should check this) P.S. for the moderator. I've attached some pages from a journal and a book. If there is a problem with the copyright I can delete them.

For my second planking which is thin veneer I've used contact adhesive (Pattex). See my build log of Matthew. I can recommend it.

Hi Janos, the idea is that because I can not sew good enough. But it proved to be very usefull for folding the edges too.

Hi Ferit, This is a very good work what you have done here. I would like to tell you that never get disappointed about what the kit companies do offer. But some prejudice is a good way here.

I have attached the sails to the yards and all the rigging to the sails at this stage. Next I will put the rigging on the ship. Finally I will attach the complete yards with sails and rigging to the model.
