mobbsie Posted April 23, 2015 Share #1053 Posted April 23, 2015 Hi Sjors, Looking good mate, she's getting some teeth now, nice. To answer your question, It is Wale, the wale is the black wooden band on each side of the ship. This can also be called a rubbing strip which protects the main structure of a ship when tied alongside the dock. What you have put on is the brass decorative strip and is not the wale. Hope that's ok mate.

trippwj Posted April 23, 2015 Share #1055 Posted April 23, 2015 Looking good, Sjors. Given the Aggie was a war ship, I sure hope you don't have any whales on the deck!!!! I can just picture Commodore Sjors sending men out onto the bowsprit with harpoons - "Thar she blows, me hardies - boats away! She breeches now - prepare the broadside with harpoons and nets! Steady now, lads, thar be only the one shot - ready the chase guns!" Yep - the Aggie takes to the south Pacific in chase of the Great White Whale Moby Dick! Oops - sorry about that...got a bit carried away!
