I like what I am seeing with your efforts to identify and correct some problem areas. For example, it appeared that the cutwater was crooked and uneven. Yet, that area looks fantastic. I'm impressed! I'm looking forward to your Santisima Trinidad as you progress with her.

Hey Bill
Thank you very much for your words.
It was very challenging to construct,especially when i got the false keel assembled already with the bulkhead without any align measures properly.
But eventually i did manage to get it right.
there wher innflictions on that later in the build.
Any way i'm very Happy with the result and i'm happy thay you like the build.
Cheers.

Hey Mike thank you very much.
Yes ibtwas a long journey but in did i'n seeing the end soon.
I'm thinking i was lost in some parts of the build,but with Donnie's build of the Santísima it made it easier to understand especially with the rigging.


Thank you @Donnie :)

Cheers
 
Itsy-bitsy Photo update of the gaff sail.
I saw various builds of the santisima and every one of them attached the sail in different way.
So i'm not sure about my way but i attached it like in the instruction.

The instructions

P.S.
All the stay sails are hanged and i already started to rig the threads to the sails.
And the lighter for the treads fuzzy strings...
- point to remember , to buy bee wax...

Cheers
 
Where's Waldo OcCre style Speechless
two threads on each side of the sail, only one spot on each side !?

I know i have some rigging mistakes but for now they are not that critical, so rigging continues to the main mast.

If someone finding Waldo let me know.

Good evening Guy. Looking impressive. Awesome. Cheers Grant
 
Proper rigging spots and how a specific sail or whole ship was rigged is more of a issue of this is how it was on this day and year.

Every time you got a new Captain, or person in charge of sails the rigging and configuration could change.

History shows many of the ships that have lasted more than a few years had things change over a period of time, so your rigging may or may-not be wrong.
