Hi All, After my build of the Half Moon, I started buiding the Friesland of Mamoli. However, when the 2nd planking was nearly done, I paused buiding due to all kinds of circumstances. Now that I'm working from home for 2 months already (due to Corona), I picked up buiding again. I'll post some pictures of the buid in 2013, end then continue where I left off. I hope to finish this build, I didn't start a report earlier because I was afraid I wouldn't keep it up. But now I built for 2 months already, I dare to start. this report. -
I believe Mamoli is the only manufacturer to produce the Friesland Galleon, at a length of 31" and height of 28". It is a double plank on frame build with many gold color castings.

The model is a magnificent replica, complete with authentic -
Hello fellow modelers. It's been an extremely long time since I got my act together to post a build log. Half of because I had lots of trouble with posting pics and the other half is I'm very shy when it comes to showing others my work. Its abit nerve wracking for me so please be persistent with me. All of this is done over my phone as I don't have a PC or laptop. I brought this kit awhile back and is my first shot at a large build. I have 6 other ships under my belt just to get some experience needed for this build. The first photo shows the all too familiar sight of bulkheads -
Hello MSW, I started building the Friesland one year ago, and maintained a build log at Dutch forum www.modelbouwforum.nl Because I relied heavily on the build log by GreatGalleons, I decided to post my progress here as well. I hope it is fun for you to read. Mind I am new to the hobby, so expect a lot of (beginner) mistakes and troubles Let me begin to recap what has been done so far. Building plank: Keel and Bulwarks, dryfit Note if you also want to build this Mamoli kit: The keel does not match the drawings/plans at all. Either make a new one from scratch or a
