Hennie Posted January 14, 2018 Author Share #139 Posted January 14, 2018 Thx Zappto Hi all!! A bit late but first my best wishes for 2018 to you all!! I wasn't able to upgrade for a while. First had to do all christmasdecorations and remove it all again. Than my computer died. Just got it back yesterday after 3 weeks!! I have finished the hull for now and just started with the decorations. The fitting of decorations is very bad. Many decorations are to big to fit so I have to downsize many peaces. The lantern on the stern floated about 7mm above the deck, so I put a peace of wood under it. Looks ok now. And I must say.... untill now I am very satisfied how it looks. Very very very shiny Gr.

Hennie Posted January 21, 2018 Author Share #142 Posted January 21, 2018 @ Edwin and Popeye: thx both for your kind words And an update: Now I know why that lantern on the stern was floating 7mm above the deck. Only its very strange that they tell you how its done 11 (!!!) pages further in the instructionbook. Sergal renewed the instructionbook but its still very bad. And more "bling bling".
