themadchemist Posted June 13, 2013 Share #279 Posted June 13, 2013 LMAO Funny stuff, I didnt realize I was so far behind. I agree your being way to critical of your work Kevin. She's beautifully crafted and the paint work looks fine. The Stern is magnificent, its coming along nicely and I like the davits and rear boat idea. Dad was a 20 year submariner and he always came back with a beard and long hair. Water was like gold. He also said that even though everybody smelled each other, that any illness spread and was gone in a week and a half and then no one got sick. Thanks for sharing the pic's, of your youth and now with the 23 kg drop your new youth on the new deck. That deck will be a nice spot this summer and congrats on losing the weight. Isn't it amazing how much dropping that kind of weight makes as far as how you feel. To Victory, the ship and in life! Cheers!

Kevin Posted June 23, 2013 Author Share #285 Posted June 23, 2013 Good afternoon everyone after doing some more work on the 1/4 galleries yesterday - i have turned my attention to the poop deck, after the flag lockers were put in i had very little space above them so i have built the stern up another 2mm to give a bit of space, The sky light is in process of having 50+ windows fitted as the top rail for the port side is waiting for the under side to dry, nice to get back into it Beef Wellington, Captain Slog, mtaylor and 6 others 9 Quote Its all part of Kev's journey, bit like going to the dark side, but with the lights on All the best Kevin SAY NO TO PIRACY.

Kevin Posted June 25, 2013 Author Share #300 Posted June 25, 2013 Hi Kevin Your stern gallery sure looks nice and clean, a thing to be proud of thats for sure. I see that you have added the stern davits, are you going to hang a boat from them? It's nice to see that you have cut out your plop deck for the sky light that will put more light inside your stern gallery, I am thinking of doing the same if I ever get to that stage. Keep up the great work. Regards Lawrence Hi Lawrence, i will be hanging 3 boats off the stern - because i want to fully set every sail including stuns, on doing so - i think not a lot will be seen midships upper deck so i wanted and alternative position for them the skylight cut is as per the plans in respect the cut-out was already there, but the after bulkhead is solid so prevents any other light getting in there and thank you for the compliment Quote Its all part of Kev's journey, bit like going to the dark side, but with the lights on All the best Kevin SAY NO TO PIRACY.
