  7. Ahoy everyone, well finally work has rezoomed, after a long serious respiratory illness, I have recovered enough to get a few hour a day back in the shipbyard. Still get very tired after a few hours but a quick nap and I am good to go. I have lots of out side work to catch up on, so work will progress slowly at first. The First Mate is keeping a close eye on me so I don't get to exhausted. I have worked on the deck as far as I want to go for now, because I will be doing the planking and will be turning the ship upside down and everyway to get the planks on.. A few pictures only, but It's a start.
  8. Nice work my friend, if I ever get to mine this log will help immensely, your details are amazing. Thanks for your log , well done.
  9. Looks good my friend. There is all kinds of methods to use to stop leakage, certain types of tape, using a clear sealer first, brushing up away from the tape not down into it. But for me I just use green painter's tape, making sure I use a flat small flexible putty knives to take the air out of the edge to be painted. Works most of the time lol. Still your ship is looking good
