Canada Steve Posted March 27, 2014 Share #1 Posted March 27, 2014 Hi all I am currently rigging up my Apostol Felipe and I was wondering if anybody has any ideas about the netting that is rolled up along the catwalk which runs down the centre of the ship . I have absolutly no idea what the pupose of it would be . I plan on leaving it off unless someone has a solid idea as to why it would be there. this is a link (if it works) http://www.occre.com/model-ship/galleon-apostol-felipe.html#!prettyPhoto[media_gallery]/5/ if not just go to the Occre site and look it up , if its not too much trouble. I have pretty much treated the ship as a bit of a flight of fancy anyway , I've made changes purely for astetic reasons and not worried about it being historically accurate . Thanks in advance Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mtaylor Posted March 28, 2014 Share #2 Posted March 28, 2014 Steve, That's basically anti-boarding netting which would also help keep falling debris from the masts from landing on that deck. It would be unrolled all the way to the bulwarks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
