Bluenose slowly making progress, I used wood glue for the deck planking , however not so successful on the planking , just not strong enough as I didn’t want to nail down the planking so revert to AC Medium glue and using clips to secure them , worked out very well , the hull is sort of completed and a few final touches and eliminating the slight overspray , I didn’t want to straight black but used Tamaya Dark Blue and no double planking hence the Red bottom

A few mishaps ( as usual) I had the keel clamped whilst working on her , well that resulted in the keel breaking , rudder off (%Y$^^) reattached it but regrettably the Keel is not entirely straight , I know nobody else will know, the hardest part the wires to the bow , it is okay but my eyesight is struggling, I don’t intend to paint the windlass, looks so much better without ( one of the personal touches) , the deck is almost completed , the next project will be the whaleboat and touching up here and there , love to know any comments and suggestions
