Canons are painted and ready for de breach rope.

Also make the little furniture for the deck.

Gratings...stove and more of that funny stuff.

Sjors

I don’t have the plans but it is great to see a Dutch Skûtsje in Hawaii hands 😃

It was about 20 years ago that i was sailing on such Skûtsje  called “ Trouw Hulp “

I hope you will get those plans.

Sjors

I have scroll back and drooling again!

I was almost forget how great this is!

Just love it.

Sjors

Wow!
 

I thought that the Jason was almost finished by now...🙃

I have to scroll back to see where you are.

Sjors

Thanks Jason,

For the first time i tapered the planks and i like it 😃

The kit is great but with all the kits there are a few things that will be changed when i will  buy another one in the future.

But the building is just fun!

Sjors

Thanks for the likes!

The depth marks are on it.

Also the butterfly at the stern.....

The Channel parts and deadeyes are also on the ship.

Till next time.

Sjors

Thanks Kevin.

And yes i have.

But all the models are gone.

To schools, care home, neighbors, co workers, friends.......

Sjors

Thanks for the likes.

Always a pleasure that you see that someone is watching.....

Done a little bit more.

Place the rudder and hinges, catheads, stern section  and bow section.

All that is seen by the pictures.

Now we go to the interior .

Sjors

I will watch it from a distance.....🙃

That looks really great Gerry!

Have fun with the second planking....

Sjors

Thanks Tom,

And thumps up 😀

Sjors

I don't like the paint job at the bow so a little bit of sanding and painted again.

In my opinion it looks much better now.

Also placed the anchor hawse bolsters and the upper rail.

Sjors

Very good job Henke!

It looks great and almost done 😄

Sjors

Thanks  dkhuen,

We are just building for fun and it has not to be a museum piece.

If we are happy with how it looks then it’s fine.

That’s the most important  thing.

Sjors

Thanks Dkuhen and Derek,

I leave it the way it is at moment.

I continue with the build . 
Up to the next problem 😀
 

Sjors

Hello dkuehn (is that your name?)

I’m building the Flirt myself and i have a question.

Maybe you have seen it on my build log about the stern side counter.

I try to find it by your model but i can’t find it?

It’s part number 57.

Sjors

That’s not good news Peter.

When you are going to Erasmus next Thursday, i will go to the SFG.

Maybe we can wave to each other.

Take care my friend and my fingers are crossed that everything goes well.

Sjors

I will see what to do.

Maybe it Is good for future Flirt builders to take attention to that.

In my opinion i have follow the curve with the planking or that building ghost is still in the house!

Thanks Jim.

Tomorrow another day with new changes.

Sjors

Hi Jim,

I have take 4 pictures and I still see no curve ☹️

Maybe I did something wrong with the planking?

Sjors

That’s why i bought one 😁

But don’t let you head down.

Take a deep breath and start over again.

I will see what you have make of it after my shift for the RET ( bus )

Sjors

Or I make a BIG mistake or I don't see it.

When you take a look at the picture of the Manuel you will see that the Stern Counter Timber are following a curve of the stern.

When I take my model and put the stern counter at the same way as te Manuel it is totally different.

That's the next picture.

At the Manuel it is saying that it has to flush with the stern underside curve.

But I don't have that curve.

So.......help or something?

Sjors

Because I don't like the waterline I chance it a little.

I keep it this way otherwise I will damage more then I want.

Next time I will get a real waterline tool.

Sjors

Bulwark and hull painted.

I know that line is not that smooth that I wanted but I'm satisfied with it.

I'm gonna keep it this way.

Sjors

Just before Christmas......

Its gonny be busy under the tree 🙃

Sjors

Thanks you all for the nice words.

@Frank,

And welcome!

Sjors
