Progress update.
Second layer of skin, or if you want, first planking is done. After which was time to make bulwarks, stem and stern. Stem was reinforced with 1mm diameter steel rod. It is not put into hull since I wasn't able to drill hole at proper angle. |

Currently it looks like in pictures below. Next up is final planking which will make or break this build.

Quite some time has passed since last update, time to dust off this build log, end period of winter laziness and show some progress. Final layer of planking is progressing nicely, I'm around 2/3rd into it.

I've managed to finish the planking. I've used last two planks on each side to correct any accumulated errors. It worked out quite well on bow and stern but in the middle there are small gaps left. Fortunately they will be covered with bumper strips (or maybe I should call it wales). Almost all planks where a bit longer than needed (around 0,5 - 1mm) which is nice and allows for some leeway. Only one on left side initially was shorter by about 0,5mm (first light brown counting from bottom and it was last one glued) but after some more sanding of previous layers I've managed to get it right.
On the bow there is there is some trimming required but I am going to do it during cap rail fitting. |

Small progress update.
I've made false frames and cap rails, fitting on bow proved to be tricky and I've damaged the part. I've also made some roof tiles over stern and fitted bumper strips. |

Not really much progress with build, I've only managed to finish bowsprit details. Black parts are made from styrene strips. I've also started work on anchors - styrene again. Not much card in this update.

Three years since last update. The model is well "seasoned" by now. Photos show current progress.
