Congratulations on finishing this fine model.  Thanks for the detailed build log.  This will aid future builders of this model.

 

The photos turned out really great.  I hope you add them to the Gallery for all to see.

Thanks!  I am happy with how it turned out, and am looking forward to another build one day 👍

Very nicely done Josh, definitely a build to be proud of.  Averaging maybe 5 hours a week, I doubt that I will have finished my Spray before maybe mid-winter, but who knows. Regardless of the pace, she is certainly a fun build.  I'll be interested to see what you choose to build next.  

Happy Thanksgiving.

Thanks Tom, and Happy Thanksgiving to you as well!  I will be following your progress on Spray - your model is looking really great.

Wonderful model, Josh. Congratulations! I'm just about ready to start reading his book, "Sailing Around the World Alone."

Well that was fast and it turned out very well.  The detail on the rigging always impresses me.  Nice how you used your interest and knowledge in Slocum and his journeys to inform and motivate your progress.  Now I have to make up my mind on if and what on a build of my own!  Congratulations, Josh, and happy holidays and a great new year.

Very nice, I hope mine turns out half as good as yours.

 

Looks like yours is coming along nicely.  Good luck with the build!
