Hi druxey thank you, it was my intention from the beginning to build as close to the original with all deck except the trossdeck, and I take photos before I put the next deck in , for me it is the joy of building that counts, it's very relaxing, I've been doing this ship for nearly 17 years with a break for 12 years

  4. The carved peace that go on top of the counter timber called slingerplank is to be mounted, I have made a mistake when I planked the counter earlier I should have waited until now to do that, but no greater harm is done I fix that later, the two carved pieces that vas mounted in wing transom is removed and new will be done
