when i paid a visit to the dockyard earlier this year, i noticed that there was some detail at the end of the anchor davits/sticky out bits.

on the end of them there seemed to be a crown or something painted, i've posted a picture, but it does not show the detail too well, but you can see there is something there. maybe jase has a better picture in his detail packs.

Took some 600+ Photos last year on a visit to the Victory. Find them useful as a referral point. The rigging does look a bit scary but I am not that far alone yet

My piccy of the Anchor supports is attatched and yeas it is a crown

Hi everyone I have had details about the Cat head crown for some time and it is a detail I feel is missing from the build, and I will be putting a pair of crowns on my Victory.

I know the manufacturer and and I could sell a pair of crowns at £1:98, postage could be saved by shipping them with another enhancement of mine.

Do you think there will be many members wanting these pair of Crowns for their Victory?

Kind Regards

Mike
