    Inboard sanding is complete. Took several days- what a tight space at the bow! Cap rail turned out pretty well. Lots of sanding because I cut it way off scale at first. Had to do surgery on one small section. Have a bit more sanding to do.

    I get it. Thanks for the clarification. There's always your Syren build to go back to. Lol

    Nice work Elijah. Don't start with "The fore deck is a lot less crowded, so I don't think it will take long." You should take the time needed, you are not in a rush, it's not F1, or Indy 500 (to keep it in your neck of the woods) have fun

    Mike, very clean work as always. Your longboat build is also one of my go to logs for my longboat build in progress. On another note- I am also waiting on the completion of your Mayflower! It's the cleanest log on that ship I've found. I plan Mayflower as my first ship build. After Chuck's longboat and pinnace. -Steve

    I appreciate the kind words and all the likes. I think I forgot to mention that this build started in June! I am trying not to rush it but am also anxious to finish it up. I have to stop planning the next builds! Although I already have Chuck's Mayflower in mind for the third build. Off to more sanding. Pray nothing breaks! Steve

    This is my first build. Since there are many great logs on this model, I will provide brief progress updates. Due to a "tree nailing" mishap I started over with replacement parts from Model Expo. Btw- it's no more fun to plank this a second time around!
     
    I have the English Pinnace waiting on the side. I intend to display both models together if I'm pleased with the results. We will see.
