Beautiful work Michael.
I think that the ropes that lie on this deck are for the gunport doors on the deck below

This is about a galley, built in England by a "imported" Venetian shipwright.
Hopefully this is helpful for you.

Thank you lawrence.
Fortunately I was on time with my elbow problem. And with some pills, stretching exercises and a few weeks already planned holiday there is already improvement. It will not be long before I go back to gardening and modelingMark,
There is indeed a very interesting thesis on this subject (thank you Mark)
Placing barrels here will be very challenging in weathering the model. Whatever their intention was -

Thank you for explaining the "chains / channels" question.
Good idea to look at channels of the Mary Rose and other ships. Turned out i have a drawing of the MR.
Looking at Mary Rose I find about 65 cm.
The ship with the barrels is about 75 cm
My channel of 90 cm is therefore very wide. it will have to be thinner.
Thanks for following and likes

Hello
Have not started building again. But I did start thinking about the next step. The places where the deadeyes and schrouds are attached.
I do not know the correct English name, but in some logs they are called "chains". Strange "chain" means something very different for me in the English language??
Looking through my documentation there are several possibilities.
A simple method as on the Vasa ship (early 17th century) and also applied to most Golden Hind scale models. And, an older method where multiple vertical support beams are used.
The second method seems better for this time (about 1570-1580). She can also be seen on drawings by Mathew Baker. So it becomes the second method.Biggest question: how wide were these things? I find narrow and wide versions in my documentation.
So first i test how wide they should be on my model, to get no problems later with the schrouds who can come against the hull.Somewhere in a log I saw this method. Ideal if you work without a plan.
So we go for the wide version (no other choice) otherwise I will get into trouble later. This makes about 90 cm (3 feet) on a real ship.
Reasonably wide, but it can explain how they could place barrels here that served as sanitary facilities.Thank you for following, and hopefully more updates soon.
