Issue 116 is taking forever!! It appears that as you get onto the the later issues the amount of work goes up considerably. I am now onto the rigging which seems to require a whole new skill set. The SOS build continually tests your patience - 3 and a half years in and still a long way to go. Will try and share some recent pictures with you.

BigGrin Hi Simon very nice work on the shrouds and dead eyes Cool Rigging is a real art form but take your time Cool
A little heads up there are some holes that need drilling in the top rail behind the shrouds if you look at the official build from 120 onwards it will show you where they are. It will be easier to do them now than when the back stays are in place

Happy building

Martyn
