AKERBOOM 1681 after Ab Hoving nominally 1/66 but drawings in 1/64

Hello friends,

today I layed my hand onto the AKERBOOM's planset to undust the project.

I was able to draw a plenty of very important lines into the printout. I do think.thetr are some difgerences between the AKERBOOM and GIDEON hull in particular the number of the clinkered planking and placing (and number)of the gunports:IMG-20260120-WA0006.jpeg

So I voted for two 2mm pices of bookbinders' cardboard - so the slots become 4mm.

This years is for slow but steady progress,

thanks to all of you.
