Bowsprit work. Attached rigging blocks, gammoning to bow, glued in place.
Placing of the head rail. Had to soak to make it bend, but made it more fragile. Manage to get it attached.
Bowsprit yardarms sanded to shape and stained.
Head rail decoration added.
Spritsail yard rigging blocks attached and attached to bowsprit 
Decorating the head rail is quite a challenge, shaping the brass wire to fit.
Spritsail topyard attached.
If you would my good sir, please prepare to raise the colors!
