Hello Paul.  Your sardine carrier looks great.

 

Here is some related information on the anchor that may be of help to you.  I scratched the William Underwood carrier years ago and here is what the plans from Harold Payson called for.  It's a 160 lb admiralty kedge anchor.  The Underwood is 70 ft LOA and the Pauline is 83 ft LOA, so yours would most likely be a little larger.  But they are from the same era.

 

Here's a webpage that might help in sizing the anchor, its weight and dimensions.  Note that everything is in metric.

Here's a few drawings from the Underwood.

 Hope this helps.  Looking forward to the final glamour shots.

I'm finished! This was my second build. It was frustrating at times and very rewarding at times. I learned a ton and enjoyed this build immensely! Now I am ready to attempt my first plank on. Thanks to all who followed this log and for your comments and encouragement.

 

Before I post final pictures I want to tell you a weird little story. Yesterday my wife went up in our attic and retrieved some old knitting magazines that belonged to my mother. The first one she picked up she opened to the following page, having no idea it would be there...

She turned out beautiful Paul - congratulations!

 

I like that the roof pops off the wheelhouse and the burlap sacks are a nice detail.  Clean and crisp construction.  Well done.  
 

What an amazing coincidence pulling out that magazine article.  Sort of Twilight Zone.
