The forward hatch, main cargo hatch, and main cabin are done, the deck, and "other" wood structures are stained.
The unfinished Boom, and Gaff are on the surface in front of the hull.
The next step is to build all the "ironwork" ( boom bands, ring bolts, chain plates etc. ), The steering gear box and cover, deck fittings ( cleats, mooring posts, etc. ) and then the rigging process can begin.
The model is 10" ( 71' )length over all ( tip of bowsprit to end of boom ) The waterline length is 7-1/4", or 52'.

We always learn far more from our own mistakes, than we will ever learn from another's advice.
The greatest place to live life, is on the sharp leading edge of a learning curve.
Lead me not into temptation.....I can find it myself!
