True story Johann
Good afternoon.
Finally had some time to continue with the foremast stays.
The 3 rope loops for Starboard toggles:
The configuration of these stays varies so much from each model Xebec which I have viewed. I don’t really know what is accurate. A beautiful Le Requin based on Jean Boudriot book (probably the most accurate) shows more extensive rigging than what I will do and of course I have Peters as a guide. (Mine will differ from Peters tho). PS : the violin blocks are made from a 6mm and 4mm blocks.
Blocks and pendants for foremast top :
Strapped to foremast
Guys please have the best Christmas and Festive season ever. Enjoy the time with Family and friends.
Cheers Grant

Beautiful rope work!!
Good afternoon. A quiet day and some Xebec time. I seated the foremast and the ships boat brackets. Some pics of how the boat looks on the ship.
There is still plenty to do with the ships boat so not glued in yet. I think I will do a lot of the rigging before finalising the ships boat.
HAPPY NEW YEAR !!!
Cheers Grant
