Glad to see that you managed some shipyard time, Popeye! That funnel colour looks good - a lovely British Merchant Navy buff. John

Thanks for the kind words, all. Bedford - building with an audience is usually fine - it's when the (sometimes) admiring public just stand there and watch your every move with accompanying flattering comments that it gets a bit disconcerting. John

Got plenty of work time in at the museum yesterday, but I didn't seem to get very far. I was hoping to at least get all the capping fitted but, as you can see from the photos, I didn't quite get there. Oh well, next time! John

Dan, if your deck plans are accurately drawn to scale, a careful measurement of the width of each deck might give you a clue to the tumblehome mystery. John

You're doing well, Popeye. I'm sure a little problem like that skylight won't even slow you down. John

Easy solution, Chris - have a go at scratch building. John
