Have you thought of the 'Shalom' as a possible future project? John -
She's coming along nicely, Mario! John

Håkan, Sorry to hear that the dinghy project didn't work out, but you've learned a lot of valuable lessons from your efforts. Next time you try this sort of thing you'll be able to do much better! John

Now that's what I call a thin cut on a big saw!! John

Sorry, but I think your only solution is to replace the shroud. John

Bob, For a launch like yours, an Admiralty pattern of about 3 feet to 3 feet 6 inches length would probably be about right. John

Nice to see your build log back up and running. John

Nicely finished gun, Bob. Can I ask the purpose of the metal plate with the hole in it at the after end of the mount? As for the anchor, a small Admiralty pattern anchor with a folding stock could be tucked away in pretty much any spare corner - maybe against the side on one of the benches, or even on the bottom of the well. John

Coming along nicely there, Tim! John
-
Popeye, You're doing a great job of getting all your build logs up and running again! John
-
Thanks B.E.! John
-
I agree. A pleasure to read - and also a real pleasure to see your beautiful model! John
-
She's looking truly delightful, Nico! John

Popeye, Fishermen often take a lot of pride in the condition of their boats. Look at the state of general maintenance on these lobster boats moored amongst the yachts at Perkins Cove. And I remebered this parking restriction sign - obviously put up just for you! John

Dave, Underhill's book is the "bible" on rigging late 19th/early 20th century sailing ships. If you're interested in earlier sail, the you might think about "The Masting and Rigging of English Ships of War 1625 to 1850" by James Lees. John

Still catching up with the new forum, Toni. It's great to see your beautiful model (and your dog) again! John
-
Great information and detail of your research as well as a terrific build, B.E. John

Still charging ahead very nicely in true Popeye fashion! John
