That's good to know Karl, something made me think that perhaps you were unwell but I'm glad that isn't the case. So, you've started the SanFrancisco. I didn't realise you were doing another build alongside your Victory - look forward to more of your build when you get back to it. Happy building David

Hi Karl. Yes, that's the one! It's shown in all the plans in my reference books but it can't be seen clearly in any of the completed hull pics on the Jotika site (the ref drawings are all based on the Portsmouth configuration of course) so I wasn't sure if it was actually there at the time of Trafalgar or added later. (It certainly isn't included in the DelPrado instructions!!) Looks like I'll be making up a couple soon then! Many thanks for that.
