  3. good evening everyone Thank you for all the comments and likes, very much appreciated 144-4 side rails are now fitted on both sides, although they look symmetrical it also looks so very tatty, for me thats been the most frustrating part of the build, with little to show for a weeks work
  4. Christmas is not out of the window, but im not racing to complete her by then, i have a few builds that need to be completed, and i have ambitions to do a two decker in the future,
  5. originally as one piece, but as the after section has been removed a few time the piece you are referring to has also been taken off and yes it looks wrong
  6. good evening everyone Thank you for comments and likes day141-4 have spent the last few days trying to get the side rails to look right, although they are nearly there, they are far from brilliant, the pain for me, is getting the last section over the after three ports where it ccrosses the banding, ten attempts so far without joy, the yellow has to be redone as the banding has moved slightly, all in all, im loving this, build, any fault there are are due to my stooooooopidity

  10. the tiles were not treated in any way, straight off the roll, but with a week interval, one side is more tarnished than the other, i have now listened to @James H and have now rubbed with fine wire wool, and coated with a water based varnish, the shineyness has gone
  11. im not sure what would be worse,, fixed steps with ropes, or full rope ladders, in a heave swell they would all have been treacherous to use you have made a real nice job of fitting them
