18th Century Longboat (Model Shipways; 1:48) [COMPLETED BUILD]

John, thank you for the encouraging remark. I am enjoying the Longboat build and as you say the scratch work is satisfying along with the research to find out what and how things should look and work.
Your boat looks very well done and congratulations for it's completion. I hope to do as well. I am retired so can work at any pace or time the trivialities of daily life allow.
Regards,
Mel
