Hi Muary,

 

I've put this link on your other post too.

 

Oar sizes

Thanks David.  This shows specs for every ship, barge and boat of the period.  With a breadth of about 8', the oars would be 20' long...just what Chuck designed into the kit.

David,

If you'd be so kind, could post that link to the oar lengths to the "Important Links" area.  I think it's important enough that it should be preserved separately.

Will do Mark.

After a long wait, I finally put the display together.  Because this is a gift and it has to be transported, I did not rig the spars, but merely displayed them.  Finding the right display case was a struggle, but worth the wait.  I'm doing another "from scratch" using box wood for the frames and all other wooden parts .  That one I'll fully rig.

Looks great.  I presume you will mast the "scratch" one?

[Redbeard]

Great job!

[Maury S]

Thanks all fr the nice comments.  Toni, Yes, the next one will be masted.  I like that part except for 12,000 ratlines and 74 guns.
