Jim Lad got a reaction from shipman in Herzogin Cecilie 1902 by Jim Lad - Four Masted Barque
Progress continues to creep ahead. After a bit of adjustment to the shapes involved, I was able to fit the figurehead that was made some time ago by Janos Nemath, one of our modelmakers. I really should have left it off a little longer, but I was anxious to see the 'Duchess' with her brightly coloured figure, which was painted at sea by the captain's wife without his knowledge. The damage to the port bulwark has now also been repaired and is ready for re-painting.

A very nice subject to model. I love old wooden ferries.

Just a small update. I've now replaced the incorrect sections of forecastle rail with the more appropriate chain and have left the removable section on the port side lying on the deck in preparation for the supposed recovery of the port anchor. I've also been doing some repair work on the well deck that is not readily visible.

Very nice looking sails, Steven.
As for the historical accuracy of the model - "based of the best available information at the time of building."
