11d Fore Top Gallant 111d1 Fore Top Gallant Halyard I attached the foresail top yard to the mast as per the instructions. Apologies, I missed the pics of this one too. Again, the rigging process is identical to the foretopsail, bar the belaying point. • Halyard – cut a 600mm thread and attach to the yard. Feed it through hole in the mast and belay to point 12. 11d2 Fore Top Gallant Yard Lift, A • Yard Lift ‘A’ – cut x2 800mm threads (Port & Starboard), attach one end to the mast, feed the other through the 3mm block on the end of the Yard, back through the block on the mast and belay to point 18. • Repeat on the other side. Garth attached the following image(s): "Measure twice, cut once!!!"

11d3 Fore Top Gallant Sheet, B • Attach x2 700mm threads to the corner of the sail, next to the block that will be used for the clewline. • Feed it through the UPPER (3mm) block on the foretopsail yard. • Then through the inner of the three blocks attached to the foretopsail yard. • Belay to point 42 (These lines are tied to the 3rd shroud) • Repeat on the other side. (7004, 7005) Garth attached the following image(s): "Measure twice, cut once!!!"

11.5-7 Main Sail, Main Top Sail and Main Top Gallant and, 11.8-9 Mizzen Lateen and Mizzen Top Sail I am not going to bore you with any more lengthy explanations. The main mast follows the exact process as the foremast. The only difference being the belaying points. The Mizzen Top Sail is as per the fore or main top sail. Again, the only difference again being the belaying points. The Mizzen Lateen only has one extra line. It is tied to the loose end of the sail and belayed to point 60 Garth attached the following image(s): "Measure twice, cut once!!!"

Hi Garth I`ve been with this build from the very start and it looks like the end result will prove my time has been well spent. Another fabulous update, so much so I treated myself to a complete run through from day one. Hope you have something else in the pipe line when this is finished as I really enjoy watching your skills in progress. Regards delboy271155 (Derek) COME BACK GUY FAWKES "YOUR COUNTRY NEEDS YOU"

Regards delboy271155 (Derek) Hi Derek, Thank you so much for the inspiring comments  I have so many half built models and as money is pretty tight in these covid times I think that I will dig one of these out. I have collected all of Hachettes Tiger 1 with a half built turret - I think that this will be my next build. A break from wooden ships will do me good  Kind regards, Garth "Measure twice, cut once!!!"

12 Flags I always have problems with the flags. They are so stiff and ridged. In an attempt to make the flag a little more used, I unravelled the edges of the flag using a dental tool. Then soaked it in diluted white glue and draped it into a more realistic shape. I used cloths pegs as it dried. FYI Alan & Martyn gave me some advice for my Victory’s flags. See the link below. http://forum.model-space...sts&t=6314&p=27 Kind regards, Garth Garth attached the following image(s): "Measure twice, cut once!!!"
