I let it out in the Florida sun and it was dried in a few minutes.
After it dried front the first coat of the water/glue solution, I diluted the existing formula once again but this time to be 85% water and 15% glue.
This permitted me to spray it with a bottle in the back and front of the sail without detaching it from the jig.
I kept some paper towel to absorb the excess puddles.

Well done model Bluebeard. It is very nice quality model kit. Scott asked me to do a beta test on this kit a few years ago and it was a wonderful and enjoyable kit to build.

teleman,
At the beginning of this build I mentioned a few things about Scott and what makes him such a great person.
I contacted him a lot to ask question about different steps in the build and he eagerly answered all of my question, he truly stands behind this great product.
Also I needed some extra material and he provided it for me.
It is a great pleasure when you deal with a person with the atributes he has.
I don't I ever put my build log here on SoS. But it is at Model Ship Builder under POF logs, if you would to see it. And yes Scott is a great guy and makes some very nice guitars too.
que dedicación
buen trabajo
buen trabajo
OOPS
Thanks to you I fixed the cringles.
DId you ever find your answer.
I have the same question for the Kyrenia.
Here it the title to a recently received paper (pdf) that you can paste into a Google or other search engine for this lengthy (book size) document. Regarding Construction, chapter 6 is titles Building the Research Model.
The Excavations of an Ancient Boat in the Sea of Galilee (Lake Kinneret) by Shelley Wachsmann.

Hey Rich,
Yes I did.
I will check that website.
Here is what I came up with.
The boat is all done, now I am working on the loose items aboard like weaves baskets, fishing nets and anchor.
Do you know of any good looking model ship fishing nets ?

That looks reasonable for downwind square running. I do have to think about how it would serve for an angled (horizontally and vertically) yard for upwind. Kyrenia II has a photo of upwind where the up wind end of the yard is very low to the foredeck and almost to midships across that. That would require quite a bit of "slack" in the mast aft side wrap. Your model looks very nice. RIch
Here is a photo of the Kyrenia II sailing upwind with the sail set (rotation of about 90 degrees to port) that I mentioned above from the Earliest representation of Brailed Sails, Steve Vinson, ARCE,
The paper that I posted above on the Galilee boat does not include anything about rigging but does include a chapter covering the items found aboard the wreck when recovered: The Small Finds: pottery, lamp, arrowhead, coins, anchors, All survivors of submersion so your own gathering of items for a fishing trip would be reasonable.

magnifico trabajo la cordeleria y sus acabados
Gracias Grengraft.
Agregaré más fotos mañana de la cordelería completa.
También estoy trabajando en una base más dramática o elegante.
I will add pictures tomorrow of the finished rigged boat without all the loose items on board.
Now I am working on the fishing net, a small
Oil lamp, ballast bags, weaves baskets, anchor and a much better looking base from the one included in the kit.

Your boat is beautiful.
RichThis is the boat with all the rigging done.
The base you see here will be change with something else I am working on, also you won't see all of the items I will be placing inside ofthe boat.
The sail received three washes of diluted white glue, one wasn’t sufficient to sustain the shape.
