Beginning the model.
Read the entire instruction booklet before you begin. Its more important to do this than you might think. Every model book, guide and kit manufacturer tells you do this. Make sure all the parts are there as every model book, guide and kit manufacturer tells you to do. Knowing what comes next will help you organize your work and any required tool or material purchase. Most important you will know which parts are missing and to order them from the manufacturer.
I went through the instruction book twice and discovered that it does not actually tell you that there are duplicate parts (extra parts) in the kit. Below are the photos of the the extra parts in the kit. The extra parts are the Keel, Rudder, Stem, Bow filler block, and stern post.
I am starting this build and your observation that there are extra Keel, Rudder, Stem, Bow filler block, and stern post parts explained my first hurdle. I was thinking I had to glue the two keel and stem parts together (not explained in the instructions) and it put a stop to that. Thanks!

I have worked on model trains, RC aircraft, wood carving, wood burning and some model ship building and have never had a forum member that did such a thorough job of providing help and explanation for a project such as you are doing. Keep up the good work. 😎 😎 😎
