  1. Hi Alan, Sorry about the health junk. Hope you get better. No, we do not have a log, are not organized enough to do that. Teresa is the builder, I am the secretary and sounding board. As a writer-of-instructions for complicated things, my frustration with these instructions knows no bounds, but amazingly, Tere is figuring things out piece by piece. I sailed some as a kid, but have had almost no contact with boats, let alone ships, since then, so my vocabulary is sadly wanting, and it seems like there are many cases of using two or three different terms for the same part. For better and worse, our brains and understanding styles are different, which means that between us one of us can most often figure it out, but we are monumentally inefficient in our guessing games. I bought this for Tere because it said it was fine for beginners. Oh well. Tere will do this, but we might need the lock down to last a lot longer.
  2. Alan, It's almost a year later. Have you gone further with Dapper Tom? We are just starting one, find the instructions to be more than a little confusing (we are absolute rank beginners at this), and it is pretty frustrating. Right now we are trying to figure out how to construct the masts, which pieces connect where... Your log seems to be the closest to what we need. Are you still working on this, or have you finished it?
