    I like the solid and purposeful look of the channels.

    The decking pattern is very impressive, both the deck and channels give an insight into how these ships were built - with craftsmanship, but using what is available where necessary.

    Good work, you have given me much to think about!

    Thank you

    I watched a programme yesterday on English television about this ship and Drake. There were many parts of the programme taken on board the replica in London. Not a lot of headroom below decks and extremely cramped living conditions. Hard to believe that the original ship circumnavigated the world.

     

    BTW,the pivot point for the Whipstaff is called the Rowle.

    I read somewhere. 

    Spanish prisoners found the living conditions below deck dark, cramped and unhealthy. They were right
