yvesvidal Posted May 16, 2019 #219 Posted May 16, 2019 So, no checker-board floor in the officer cabin? Yves
CRI-CRI Posted May 16, 2019 Author #220 Posted May 16, 2019 No checker-board : the real one would be painted, without any interest, and not with wooden little squares, which never existed : the future Republic of United States had less money than United Kingdom... 😋 bruce d and yvesvidal 2

CRI-CRI Posted May 20, 2019 Author #228 Posted May 20, 2019 (edited) @ Dubz Another detail: the smooth crown of the stern was never sculpted to facilitate the evacuation of water splashes, and preferably tarred to protect the wood from cracking caused by the sun Edited May 20, 2019 by CRI-CRI Add photo
