Having checked both magazines and the pictures of the official build it seems that there is no provision for placing cannon balls and buckets on the upper or lower quarter decks. They have however provided seven buckets which could be used but not enough cannon balls. Was this a deliberate omission or accidental?

Thanks both for your input. I have made the boxes and purchsed bearings but just wanted to see if anyone else had noticed the omission.

If you prefer your cannon shot to be black visit Cornwall Model Boats web page
They do several different sizes of cannon shot at a reasonable price
