Beautiful workmanship, Igor. Well done on pulling these stands together. I especially like the name plates.

 

How'd you do the lettering?

 

Cheers

 

Patrick

Thank you Patrick!

The next steps - installation of the front sails, tension of the  rigging and the cutting of the yarns.

Many thanks Mark!

 

I wanted to make a traditional braided cord neck bottle, but could not find a suitable cord. So I decided to make the easiest way.

So on Saturday I finished this project and the boat went to place of parking of whole my fleet.
