Hi Steve.
Thank you for your comment. Yes I am aware of the cuttaway inserts you mention. My intention is to place cannons and body's onto the decking I have inserted and not use the deck inserts provided. I also done this way to keep the wood deck colour the same as in the doorway area that I had planked earlier in my build rather than pencilling the lines on the deck on the ply I did not think this looked right.
Thank you for looking much appreciated IanBigGrin

Hi John.
Thank you for your kind remarks.
I have a few more ideas on improvements. Wish I will post when I get round to doing them.

Hi Ian,
I was pretty sure you knew what you were doing BigGrin - In that case its a great idea to have the deck planking more uniform and is going to look fantastic when finished, love the build anyway.

Hi all.
Have just finished one of my upgrades the cabin windows.
I have added cross pain windows to them using some cut up gratting strips I had left over. I have also added two windows and a door to the rear wall that was blank.



What it looks like together.



Thanks for looking Ian.

Hi Nigel.
Thank you for your comments. Yes the coppering is a very drawn out job.
The end result is worth all the effort. I wanted to do it at this stage so you can turn boat upside down without damaging her
