Trussben Posted September 30 #185 Posted September 30 Portland is coming along really nicely JJ, but also cant wait to see you back on the Winnie too! Will the lower deck be getting a full set of cannons/carriages or just dummy cannon barrels sticking out? scrubbyj427 and mtaylor 1 1 Quote Current builds: HMS Pegasus TFFM. HMS Winchelsea.

Hi Ben, the gun deck will be complete with all the 24 pdrs as well as cabins, chain pumps and fittings. It will be fully viewable through the framed upper deck with minimal planks. As soon as the hull is planked I will begin working on the gun deck. Im looking forward to making some progress on my Winnie as well, it’s been way too long and I’m so close to the end!
