If you work on your ship regularly, some day you will finish it.
Splendid work, my friend.

One final update before we close the shipyard for our vacation.
The twin binnacles have been completed and mounted. With this, the 'command and control center' area is completed.
I'll be around and checking in on all of you for a few days. Then it's off to Alaska in search of a King Salmon with my name on it. Been over 25 years since we visited the North country so it will be interesting to see the changes. Be 'off the grid' for about 3 weeks.
Stay the course and keep a lamp burning in the stern gallery so we can find our way back.

Sjors got a reaction from robnbill in Landlubber Mike's technique for furled sails
Question
When you do furled sails on the jib boom and Gaff ,is that the same as what you are doing with the bowsprit sails ????
So the sail goes furled on the jib boom and goes up a little?
Or am I totally wrong ?

Because it's the day for Christmas and I think it is time to post a few pictures.......
The quarter galley at the starboard side are also in place.
The transom decorations are also there.
I have re-do the letters 4 times because it was not what I was looking for.
And don't forget I have a few extra pair eyes in the house........Anja.
She is really my biggest criticus !!!!!!!!!!!!
The railing on the balcony is soft metal.
I have seen on the picture that it is not totally straight.
I will keep it like this at the moment and later on I will try to straighten it.
Now it is time to start at the cannons on the lower gun deck.
That means painting, painting and painting...........
And of course the rigging of those things.
I have received 2 mm blocks from Grant, so wish me luck with the tiny stuff !
When the first one is done, I'll will post a picture of it.
Sjors
Then a last thing from both of us....
A Merry Christmas and all the best in good health for 2015 !

A little update.
The decorations on the port side gallery are on it.
It looks if the windows are not straight but that's an angle of the picture.
There are frames in the wood where you have to put the windows in.
It can not goes wrong ( except for me then )
