Decided against furled sails on this ship. Mounted the bowsprit and mizzen mast.
Need to clean the mount attachment area.
I tried cutting these round pieces that mount where the mast goes through the deck. But, couldn't make any without breaking them. So, cut a 3/16" wide strip of heavy paper and wrapped around the masts. Then painted them black. They are shiny now, but plan to either brush or airbrush a clear matt over entire ship.
Was trying to mount the masts at the correct angle. Then remembered I had this tool which I hadn't used in a long time. I set it on the plans base aligned with keel of the ship and set the angle of the mizzen. TOOL on Amazon
