900-ton barque
It is now all ready for the rigging. Bowsprit/jibboom, and all three masts completed and painted. The masts are complete with their tops, crosstrees and spreaders, and the boom and gaff have been fitted to the mizzen. I also did some more work on polishing the inner base and outer quadrant moulding. The wood is now showing a much richer colouring after the application of two or three coats of polish.
Once again, very little interest has been shown in this one, execpt on Facebook, where it has been very well-received.
