Haha first I have to finish Alert and Royal Caroline. But in my mind it is already build and I have already thought out how I will build it as it will be shell first

Hello Everyone. Today was spent tidying up, doing final sanding and so on.
Final Sanding done on the planked portion (there wasn't much to do). Starboard Side
Port Side
Front three-quarter view starboard side.
Rear three-quarter view port side. On this picture you can also see that all curvatures at the stern had been filed and sanded to shape. I also cut the channel at the stem for the keel to fit which took the most time.
View from the top showing what the planking looks like on the other side and the beautiful lines of the ship. Notice just how bulbous the hull is midships.
And then with six days left until it is Christmas, Anna and I would like to take the opportunity of wishing you all a very blessed Christmas and a New Year that is filled with health and personal happiness for you all. Thank you for the wonderful times and moments that we could share as kindred spirits in 2021 and may it abound in 2022!

That has all been my pleasure Roger - and the spin-off is that I get to meet and make wonderful new friends such as you!
Heinrich and Anna,
For both of you a very nice christmas, and a good jump into the new year. The Chinese new year will start a bit later (the first of februari when I'm correct) and then you should have been moved into your new appartment, with a new job ahead. Good luck with that!
And a huge thank you for your nice build log here!
Hans

So far you have done a beautiful and neat work. The planks gives her a very nicely sway. And I'm pretty sure the rest of the hull and build gets just as much love and attention. Which is also my wish for you and Anna.
