One thing to say at this point. Keep an eye on your false keel. If it goes off straight then fix it straight away other wise you will build up problems later.

The 3 keel parts that you glued together in issues 3 & 10 that the ribs and lower gun deck fix to.
This is the false keel as the proper keel will be attached later after the planking is completed.
The false keel runs the whole length of the ship from bows to stern and must be kept straight.
