Your concept is working very well. It‘s looking amazing.

Thank you Christian. Still a few small bugs that are being worked out of chapter 1 but it’s almost there.

I would love to start on this when you are ready. It looks awesome. Have you considered fully planking one side of the hull?

Fantastic work and excellent results. The model already looks impressive.

 Thank you. Should be ready to make some available soon.

 

i have not considered Planking it anymore than necessary lol that’s a lot of plank work. I have a POB one that I will be planking at some point though.

JJ, I have been a while since I have had a chance to read the forum.  I finally caught up on your design of Portland and I have to say that you have thought of just about everything to make it easier to build.  Keep up the great work!  I can’t wait to see what you come up with next.
