  1. Chuck back to the basic hull, you say you drilled holes,- Did you actually insert pins, or just drill and fill to simulate all the best
  2. for the brass profile,on the stern i am going down the route of using a plastic strip layed flat against the hull, and one at 90 degrees to it to form a window sill, - well that is the intention at present - yes i have pinched the idea from Gil, but looking at the photo's of the real vessel, there is a defined sill under the windows that wraps around the galleries that cannot be obtained through the brass profile alone
  3. Augie your built look lovely well done i lived in Scotland for 25+ years, you could tell it was summer, the rain was warmer And for info the wabbit fleet is on operations in the Med, waiting to pick a fight, Hms Victory, Royal Caroline, and Amerigo Vespucci - All battle ready

  5. there are two ships to choose from, the Prince William and the Stavros S Niarchos. The former sets sail around the fantastic coast of the UK and Ireland to take in the breathtaking coastline while the Stavros heads further afield to the Mediterranean and Canaries as well as Madeira. PRINCE WILLIAM OR Stavros S Niarchos
