Really nice model mate. Did you re-plank the decks, or are they the original scribed ones that come with the kit? They look really nice.

The decks are the ones that came in the kit with a couple of coats of varnish.

I put mine on flush with the deck planks.  Installed centered would trap rain water on the deck.

Kurt I was wondering about the port & starboard stringers.  did you install each .... the entire length ..... or splice them.  Materials in the kit are to short and in the manual I don't see splices either.  Splicing would seem to me to contradict the purpose of the stringers in the first place.  Did I not get the proper stock or is it not supplied with the kit and you used you own stock.  I've checked my shipyard supplies but don't have the right dimension.
