Ah yes, no wonder tht most of us build our ships with no sails.....too much hot air blowing around to be able to keep them under control if the sails were set! Windbags are always producing more hot air!!!!!

Nice anchor, glad you explained that when I was there, I think the cable attachment is a great idea...

Congratulations on the promotion Commodore Andy. Don't too used to sitting with Augie though - looks like he's getting ready to move over to the Admiral's table with SeeYours!!!

CONGRATULATIONS, INDEED!
Popeye and I have been waiting, seemingly forever, for someone to replace Sjors at the Commodore's table. Really happy it's you, Andy.
Waiter --- see if there's place over at the Rear Admiral's table :D

Thanks guys.
Another 30 more days or so and I should be ready to pick up where I left off... and dive into another, slightly different, project.

Thank you all gentlemen for looking in and your kind comments.
Yes, Ian, she can bite now
Today was spend sanding and again sanding. I also wiped her down with a damp rag with some solvent to remove most of the sanding dust. Tomorrow some more touching up and fiddling around trying to correct some of the ragged edges and then making more "teeth" for the vertical portion of the rear keel.
When she looks satisfactory then I may paint the lower part of the hull in red. When that's dry it may just be the right time to start prepping for the conning tower The hull part above the waterline can be painted any time and it'll be green. Everything above the deck will be a light gray with a teak colored deck.
Cheers to all,

Tsk tsk Sjors ....its derived from the latin 'puppis' meaning 'stern'.

And the poop deck is at the wrong place !
It should be just before the bow and not at the stern......
The round houses in front are poop houses

Hi John,
We have this morning our part of the storm.

We are safe !
Anja was at work and I stay at home.
No damage in the neighbourhood
There was a hurricane but that as on one of the Islands ( Vlieland )
But thanks for thinking at us
