Greek Bireme, Amati - Loracs

[Loracs]

Good afternoon, I started this small build as a planned Christmas gift for my father. I was thinking that it would take it would be 2-3 weeks to build, which of course turned into 2-3 months. Rigging is temporary since it will travel with me by plane.
Enjoy,

Thank you all, greatly appreciate it. It was surprisingly difficult planking at the bow and stern. The bow to shape balsa properly to multiple width of strips. The stern due to extreme side binding of strips. I had to get creative there by splitting them as a wedge to have very little width at the most curved area. The challenge was the overlap, so it looks nice.
