It's time to fit the stern brackets instead of painting them I have joined them to the stern then removed some of the sapele from the ship then reapplied some longer strips of sapele and knitted them in leaving them joint free, I also used a pair of old gold earrings ( the wife was throwing out) re shaped and used to decorate the ends of the brackets robbyrob60 attached the following image(s):

Reagrds Alan Thanks Alan ,the cutting out of the sapele cost me though I put a new blade in knife and sliced top of thumb of you don't realise how valuable your thumb is until you lose the use of it is very hard to hold anything now,

Another job I did was to move the electric wire what was coming out of the rear gun port it just had to be moved as it was a big mistake putting it there in the first place so that's gone and hopefully know one can see it will put a picture on later as I forgot to take one. I have also reworked the bulkhead and given it a curve and painted it gold and put a new door in so been busy and stressed  overall I am happy now with the outcome . robbyrob60 attached the following image(s):
