Hello Brad, on my Amati Nina they go through the mast and are tied on the deck with three hole violin blocks, then tied to the fife rail. Hope this helps.

Eamon great looking models, if you ever run into troubles, this is the place to be. So many people here will help , just ask you'll see. Good luck on your journey.   

Peter, I believe that you can . I think you put your model in the scratch build area, under the right year. Then tag  it "Restoration"   If this is not right the moderators will change it LOL Good luck on your journey.    Welcome aboard!!

I'll tag along, I am sure your brother will love it. Good luck on your journey.

Good luck on your journey #2, remember to ware your mask 😷  when char removing 😁. I found if I used the back side of my 10 blade first  sanding was quicker. But it is slow steady work. Good luck

David, I looked at a lot of St. Roch builds today the ones that look the best are just in line with the portholes. I even went to the Vancouver Museum web site, their St. Roch portholes are even with the rubbing stake. I think they look good.

 Can we lower the rubbing stake   just a bit or do you have to raise the portholes.

I would go for a little tidier than accuarcy but I am a newbie lol. 

You can count on our prays for sure Keith, stay strong my friend we are all with you.

 This is the place to be,  always nice to see a fellow Manitobin. So many people here will help you along the way . You'll sea!!

Glen that is awesome.  I had to stop cleaning the shipyard and go show the First Mate . I should be back modeling in 4 or 5 weeks . She said to tell you " your so talented " and she agrees with all of us what an amazing build. Can't wait to see you top this ,but you will lol. 

 Great job.
