Also the driver boom and gaff were completed.

After consulting some books regarding the rigging i adjusted the position and number of the blocks especially on the gaff.

Also i added a footrope to the aft part of the boom.

Hi Walter,
Great update as always.
Once you start assembling the masts and spars, you really start to appreciate how big the model actually is.
Kind regards,
Garth

Thanks guys!

Yesterday i could finish the bowsprit.

Before assembling all the parts i already added all the blocks that later are needed for the bowsprit shrouds and bobstays.

I hope this way i spared myself a lot of curses later on - cause i couldn`t imagine how to add those blocks once the bowsprit is finally attached to the ship.
