He was right to add zinc anodes, but their position is not correct now. Here is a picture where to install them: Happy new year!

I don't know their size in scale, so all my comment is purely theoretical. I would use some kid's felt tip pen as a jig, especially their cup like this: or this, these are smaller and their general form is better match the aerial: The O-rings could be made by wire.

This is an interesting knot. Hard to imagine how they knot it, which end is starting and which one is the finish line. I guess you have to lift up the three round and put the end under them?

Why i missed this build so long? Now i have to read 45 pages back... Following started just now. Excellent work!

I have a very-very bad idea:

Absolutely my friend! Although the wheelhouse and the long focsle limit the possibilities somehow. In the below picture she had golf-ball satellite antenna, and an ecapsulated auxilary radar, the upper one is still Decca. The picture taken in 1984 when Calypso moored in Davenport during the Missisippi research.

She had it, in the early 50's, with the old, round window wheelhouse. Note the different (shorter) side under the foredeck: Then i found a picture with a new radar, but yet missing the big egg antenna and the helipad (still picture from 'Undersea World Of Jacques Cousteau' from 1968) but with the new bridge and shortened stack::

I think the radars on the mast are not correct. The upper one is a very early 50's (probably K-band), and the lower is probably from 80's. The model depicts Calypso in 80's era (see the satcom antenna cover, the big 'egg' behind the bridge), therefore i'd change the radars for more sleek nautical models like those on below pictures: Also i'd model the iconic circular storm-visor on the middle window of the bridge:
