To my eye, indistinguishable from full size yards.

Indeed. Authentic.
Looks like wood and metal.

Thanks Mike,
some progress on the foresail, lifts, slings, lifts tackle and falls
I know it is slow but I don't work on it steadily. However when some progress is made its still gratifying

Looks good as always Glen.
The first image provides a close-up view and I noticed the "planks" in the walls of the cabin. Can you comment about the technique used?

Thanks Mike, I did glue on strips of card to simulate planks, trying to make it look more like a wood model. That little cabin sat for a loong time I may have spruced it up along the way

Thanks. It does appear you put something extra into it. My cabins are printed on paper. I do my best with the artwork, but the planks don't have that 3-D appearance you achieved with this one.
It also looks like you added a separate corner piece, to make it even better. (It reminds me of one of those cabins in a "Bob Ross" painting.)

Nice job Birder. I like the top platform and the detail around it.
