DocRob Posted June 19, 2023 #488 Posted June 19, 2023 Congratulations Mark, what a beauty. I like the decision, to omit the masts and rigging. I'm exactly at this point with my Duchess of Kingston and can't find the courage for the rigging. With your great build, I realized for the first time, that not all of the gunports have lids and I own this kit as well.
