One day when I’m big…..

Yup. I agree. It's quite humbling to witness Herman's outcomes...

Pięknie wygląda twoja praca Hermanie, zdjęcie pod pokładem jest super . Pozdrawiam Mirek

Thanks, Mirek. They were only minor additions, so I thought I'll add a photo from a different perspective.

Some extra work on the small foredeck. Clinker planking under the catheads, gunports and gunport lids and clinker planking above the gunports.

Nice and fine work, Herman. Lids and hatches are designed to be removed. You made then that way.
Regards, Peter

Well, it's not your craftsmanship Grant, nothing wrong with that. To get bigger, maybe enjoy a good braai more often?

Thank you Paul for your very generous words. Humbled am I every time I check your build log.

Thank you Peter.
One of the next challenges is to keep the 6 statues adorning the vertical beams of the foredeck narrow enough so that the gun hatches remain movable.
