Thank you Derek Andy Alan and Ian for the bril comments  Some more rigging on the stern part of the ship Fitted the mizzen yard this one is without a sail next job the lateen sail sewed the sail to the yard and then threaded it through the block and tied it to the eye bolt Prepared the braces at the lower end of the yard . Next the luffs on the upper part of the sail then on to the lifts and these are fitted as per assembly pics Then on to the next sail . No problem fitting this one Hope you like the pics Happy building rgd Martyn Martyn Ingram attached the following image(s): Building ?

Hi Martyn, can understand you feeling a little sad coming to the end of what has been a challenging build in places however, you should also feel exceptionally proud of what you have achieved... She is what can only be classed as a beautifully constructed ship, one that has been a pleasure to follow and one that should be displayed with pride.....  .. Very well done, credit to your achievement..... Regards Alan
