The photo below shows the stern gallerys with only one open gallery, as shown in the deck plans. this is unusual i know. could it have been after the battle of St Vincent. when elaberate stern decoration was being reduced.

bottom whale being fitted.

the other whales beinf fittted and start of second planking above water line. The ship behind is a kit , mamoli,s royal louis

copper tiles were used below the water line to hide my bad attempt at second planking.
