Hello modeling friends.
The model is planed according to the plan drawings of Gerard Delacroix, Le Fleuron 1729.
Scale: 1/60, Wood: Elsbeere (Sorbus torminalis).
I will build the model as "La Charpente", as shown in picture 0.01.
i.e. only the carpentry / joinery, without interior fittings and carving of the exterior.

Great work as usual. With your permission, I'll take a seat to follow your progress. I imagine that the choice of scale is due to the place where you plan to display it.

You are very fast my friend.
refering the hawse holes - I thought f.,e. at your 74 bow model, that you made them parallel to the axis like Gérard wrote
