Hello Wayne, would recommend the book Anatomy of the Ship by Portia Takakjian as a quick reference. The book has data on Essex's mast/spar sizes as well as rigging layouts and associated details.

Hello Jim,

I took my usb drive to Gig Harbor Copy and Print on Judson St. (3110 Judson St. Gig Harbor, WA). Just print full size. They did a fantastic job. Also had them printout Chapter One on 32 pound paper, much easier to handle in the binder I put together for this build.

Chuck, this is a fantastic series. Being a visual person, these videos really help simplify the planking process. Thanks again.
