  1. Today I completed the exterior lining of the bulwarks and what I think we used to call the counter; that is to say, the view shown in this photo of the aft end, specifically the curved, raked back  part.

     

    I am sorry to have to report that there are discrepancies in my kit from OcCre.   The dowels received are 4 pcs 0f 3.8mm dia. (5/32") and 2pcs of 4.8mm (3/16").  So I am OK for spars, but there should have been 2 pieces of quarter inch for the masts.  No problem, because I have some ¼" in stock, and of course there's lots of that at the hardware store anyway.

    I received far more than I needed of  the 2x5x400mm (sycamore I think), which is used for the first "underplanking" of the hull, (as shown in the lower hull here).  I have a bundle of 15 pieces of that left over, enough to plank another half a hull.  Strange.
