I got a little bit more done.
This shot is a comparison of the freighter bow, and the collier bow. You can see the different foredeck heights, and the "rub plate" for the anchor chains, I also got the anchor windlass drums installed .
Here, the differences in the pilot houses. I modified the windows, and the entry door. I also got in the "windbreak" across the bridge level.
This shot is of the foredeck, from above and behind the pilot house and stack. To the port side is the companionway to the Forecastle ( fo'c'sl ), and the windlass machinery room. There will be a ladder on the starboard side, from the main deck up to the foredeck, railings, and "other hardware", later.

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!
