This is not really a build log as I have my Xebec completed waiting for its display case. These pics are pretty much the completed model !

I didn't paint below the water line because when I finished planking, I liked the look so much that I thought it a shame to cover it with paint ! I'm not totally happy with my sails, but they look just OK , so that is likely the way they will stay, unless, Someday I don't have a model on my bench, they might get changed.
