patrickmil Posted March 17, 2013 #91 Posted March 17, 2013 Sjors, hopefully locating the hole for the mizzen mast will go well. Good luck with this and keep posting so we can follow along closely. A little too early for me to be drinking beer but I have some coffee.

patrickmil Posted March 17, 2013 #95 Posted March 17, 2013 Sjors, pictures really go nice with the morning coffee, especially when one is at work! I appreciate the picture and it looks as though you will be rigging soon.

Sjors Posted March 17, 2013 Author #96 Posted March 17, 2013 Hi Grant, I'm glad that I found it out now before everything is on the deck. But very strange that you can find it any where on the drawings. That's the main thing with drawings from Corel. It is really terrible! Patrick, Are you at work right now? I have to go in a few hours….. From 16.00 hours till 01.00 hour. The rigging stage can take a while before I'll be at that. First al the decorations, gun lid ports (something like that) and a few other stuff. Then of course all the masts and I have to look closely before I forget things. It goes steady but is goes...

trippwj Posted March 17, 2013 #99 Posted March 17, 2013 Good time to find that, Sjors! Nice recovery. Shall sit back now and enjoy the next scene whilst sipping a green beer in honor of St. Patrick's Day...corned beef and cabbage cooking and the wee folk (actually, both are now much taller than I) are reminding me of their Irish ancestry.

augie Posted March 17, 2013 #101 Posted March 17, 2013 Nice catch on the mizzen mast. I guess the Mirage is bit too big to be a brig? Now appears to have only one mast.

Sjors Posted March 18, 2013 Author #107 Posted March 18, 2013 Here comes update nr 2. Why they call it an long boat, I don't know but ok. Attention please, beware those pictures are taken with an HD video camera so you really see everything! When I see the pictures for the first time I thought, trow it away and make a new one….. Now I'm thinking, ok, she is old so it not have to be perfect and smooth surface.

Keep up the good work, and be careful with the masts and rigging. Don't rush things, as the rigging dresses up the whole vessel. Will keep on watching this log for sure.
