The Norske Love" by Noël Luc Build log

[Noël Luc]

Another step closer to ship construction! I've installed all the guns on both sides of the hull! The next step is finishing the back of the boat. Two more hatches need to be installed there for two more guns, and then I can install the rudder. It's starting to look like a warship! All the deck parts haven't been glued down yet!

Two months ago I started building my first boat "The Norske Love". Probably too ambitious! In the basement of my house I set up a working environment to build the boat.

Then I installed all the ribs.

I saw the decoration in the next photo in a post from another built Norske Love in the forum. Hopefully I was allowed to use it.

I think it's not at all too ambitious to start with this ship, I see that you have "the sacred fire" or the passion, bravo! You will go far, beyond the oceans my dear Luc ♥ From Philippe (BE)
