The layout is in the well-known New Vanguard style. First edition was in 2008 By Angus Konstam & Illustrated by Tony Brian The subject is : The design of late medieval ships and carracks (and the Mary Rose) The operational history of the navy's of Henry VII and VIII Armament and tactics Easy to read and with beautiful photos and color prints. Contains general information about the subject. If you want detailed information about the Mary Rose.Then this book is not suitable (my opinion). For some reason some of the photos are on their side front back index Content

Small update (With spring in the air, there was a lot to do in the garden). The parrel ribs give me a headache. Making them manually is a time consuming disaster... So plan B, started with the big machinery first. And then later the "better" work with the file Blocks, work in ptogress Current status A batch of blocks and a lot of raw material that would one day become parrel ribs Thanks for following

Just an idea I would fill the bow with filler blocks first. That will work much easier for planking

The running rigging of the spritsail is ready. Although not in use, all necessary ropework for this sail should be in place. Paintings and drawings from this era served as example. current status Next to do, the fore sail

Considering there is little or no reliable information for this period. I always look at which method was most common in drawings and paintings. Example: painting the sides of the hull (the arrows were the most common). This also applies to my rigging.

No problem. Both Source (Yes, a carrack, not a galleon. But the principle is the same)

Nice sails. My idea was to attach 3 to the fore sail and 5 to the main sail See Link to post 643 in Pelican build

Continue with the rigging of the spritsail Added some rope coils. And some blocks that are not in use because the spritsail is stored. Also added a bucket Spritsail and yard ready And in position. The idea is to tie it up (yellow line). My experience with sailing is minimal (1 trip with little wind and calm water). But what I have learned was: everything that is loose starts to swing around and cause problems later.. Thanks for following

Nice work. But don't forget that Vasa wasn't painted blue (as recommended on the billibgs instruction) but red
