2008 Recap

Here is a quick recap of 2008 up until about the end of summer.

Here I've added the railing, netting, and skid beams (for supporting the ship's boats) to the quarter deck.

Here is a nice view of the quarter deck in general. I have placed the main mast in this photo.

This photo shows the addition of the chainplate and deadeye assemblies. This is where the shrouds (the rope-ladder looking rigging) are eventually fastened.

Here is a picture of the overall ship. It is tough to fit the whole thing in one detailed photo becuase it is pretty large (about 40-some inches long). I am ready to start the rigging and I promise to provide much more detail in my subsequent posts now that I am all caught up.
