Building the Endurance

The Question relates to the position of the deadeyes for the front Mast, As we seem to agree they were on a side board and not the rail. I have based my assessment on an old model because I could not find any detailed photos

The stairs that come with the kit are not great. I note that some builders chose to make their own out of wood & this allowed them to install hand rails. I tried to move someway towards this by using the kit brass stairs but adding wood side pannels so that I could install hand rails. THEN :---- I discovered some stairs on ALIexpress at almost the right scale that included side rails. Cheap and not bad. I am quite impressed with them & will use them in lieu of the kit stairs

Thank you !
