FROM ME TOO, Don PS ANY MORE PROGRESS ON YOUR BUILD FOLLOWING THIS ONE AS I AM CONTENPLATING GETTING THIS ONE FROM ANCRA, AS I AM NOT DOING THE LE ROCHEFORT VERY WELL RIGHT NOW AND I WISH THERE WAS A LOG ON HER AS THIS IS MY FIRST FRENCH AND FIRST SCRATCH BUILD AND HAVE A LOT OF QUESTIONS AS THERE IS NO LOG ON THIS ONE CAUSING ME QUITE A FEW PROBLEMS, 3-D WOULD HELP VERY, VERY, MUCH. Don
Please check also the booklet - on page 25 is the same shown plus additional drawings of the line construction.
This one on the drawing seems also to be not correct, due to the fact, that it is not central but moved to the left (which would surprise me).
Unfortunately Franco Fissore is not a member here, so we can not ask him directly

Don
I guess it is version A, means the top of these stiffeners are somehow horizontal, or following parallel to the frame form.....
between them are the bilge pumps installed in four boxes, this detail you can see explained in the Monograph booklet at page 79 Drawing 8

I agree with the collegues - No. 5 with the paper - what is the thickness of the paper you are using? -> It is looking very good
its simple 80gsm office paper, couldnt find any thicker at home..
As much, as like #5, I am afraid it might be a bit big (prominent) for the scale (IMHO). Will you add treenails to the deck as well? If yes, can you make samples with three nails in-place? I suggest #6
