Ian,I hate to add more to your work but the gun carriage is incorrect as well,the wide part should be the breach end. Rob Nolli Illigitimi Carborundum!!!Current Builds: HMS Victory, SV Thermopylae

There was much discussion in the early days of the build,the gun carriage is wrong in the mag,there wouldnt have been deep cut lines down the sides,& should be wider at the breach. Rob Nolli Illigitimi Carborundum!!!Current Builds: HMS Victory, SV Thermopylae

Regarding rib 15 I found that the rib had to be lowered by filing the slot approx 1,5mm deeper. Check the deck support lugs are in line if they are, your solution is correct.
Happy building

Hi Ian! It looks great mate! I would like to ask is it possible for you to take a picture of the stern from the side to check the side profile of the transom and false keel. Darron
