  1. Hi Jacques, everything is looking great. If the coating on the steel wire is giving you grief you can try sanding it off and then heat the wire with a butane lighter or mini torch.. The metal will turn dark grey giving it a more natural look. Someone posted this suggestion a little while ago but regrettably I can’t remember who it was.
  2. I’ve never built one but I keep looking at the Wasen - Japanese style boats made by Woody JOE. They look like they would be an interesting and fun build. Good luck with your decision.
  3. Gary, thank you for showing your planking techniques both inside and out. She is looking great!
  4. Jacques, congratulations on finishing your Juana y Jose. Your scratch builds have been very interesting and informative. Always enjoy seeing your updates.
  5. Gary, thanks for sharing your gifting of such a beautiful boat to the Jonesport Historical Society. Very nice! And the Pelican’s planking looks amazing
  6. Thanks Dave, this will be a very interesting build to follow 👍
  7. Hi Dave, glad to see that you are starting this log here. What do you think of the GasPatch accessories. Are they a lot nicer than the kit parts?
  8. Hi Joe, the Sharpie you’ve acquired is truly beautiful and inspirational. I didn’t realize that it had been that long since your last post. Time certainly flies. Hope you are able to finish and display her soon.
  9. Hi Joe, thanks for asking. I was looking at her last night and thinking it was time to get back to it. Last summer I moved to this new ( for me ) place. It took way longer than I thought it would to renovate but I now have a work room. Then this came in the mail today. Hope it’s not too much of a distraction 😀 I want to start on the staves running around the stern in the next couple of weeks.
  10. Hi Jacques, I could be mistaken but in one of the above pictures there seems to be a different type of material running along the ridge. Possibly for protection of thatch while working up there. Another boat has its sail (?) draped along the ridge. Something like this could aid in the snagging issues. Everything is looking great.
  11. Nils, what splendid work you have done. Another one of your creations where every time you look at it you see another story being told!
