To ensure a good view of the interior, the necessary components were re-cut from pear-wood and mounted. For the correct angles and distances helped spirit level and spacers.

The work on the forecastle continues. However, before the planks are laid, a small assembly is still missing.

It's the little things that make a model even more beautiful. The stopper for the windlass was not included for simplicity for the beginner. So it was made myself. Holder with pawl and bolt.

Hallo Thomas,
very well done - so it is good to have the Boudriot drawings - with this you can make a "great one", like @Heinrich mentioned

The deck and the crane beams from the kit. On the lower right, the prepared new crane beams in one piece and on the upper right the anchors with imitated nailing by a needle and a rope around the anchor rings.

While on larger frigates and larger ships the sailors could stand, it was very crowded on the "La Belle". It was certainly not an easy life on board such ships.

Best regards

The sailor is the young Jean (Boudriot). He knows the details of this ship and helps me build it. His only complaint is that the ship is too small and he can just about stand upright in the cabin. He constantly wants me to build a more spacious ship from his collection. Of course, he gets to sleep in the cabin every night.

Best regards
Thomas
