wee bit o the stern to plank and job done. To b followed by some
poly filler to get a mould from it.
rather like Royal Yacht Britannia
Well spotted Jay, one of my last jobs in the Navy
was as a signalman on her in the 80s. Thought it would
make a nice model to build from scratch. Not built one
for a long time so plodding along with it.

wow, fond memories then
was once told that there was a royal turd mounted in a glass case in the pussers' mess, but I'm sure that wiznae true
so, not content with buggering about with a big aul' ringer, you're building the royal yacht! Graceful lines
Having finished (
) the Ribhinn Donn I a year or so back, I've made a very, very slow start of a Greenland seiner ... basically a Danish anchor dragger ... from original lines. Finally prepared the paper moulds for the frames only a few days ago. This is another biggish beast being 3/4-in to the ft.
Management not happy as the house is cluttered up with models, including two ringers, plus bits of Sequoiah
Have a brill Christmas

Hiya Hugh
Hope you're having a decent Xmas/NY break!
What style of crabber is it? French perchance?
So the story of the royal turd had substance after all!
We're battened down again this morning ... howling outside
Thankfully Seq is snug at Muirtown Basin and therefore not a major souce of worry

yes its the hull moulding for thr Peader Elaine Jay, one o the boys I work with doing contract GRP work is also a boatbuilder like me, he used to supply a few of the model shops around the Glasgow area with hull mouldings as a sidline. He gave me the Peadar Elaine mould and an Rnli hull moulding last year to play with. Weathers rotten diwn here as well, back to work on the 7th but im trying to grt some more work done on the Gem, and also hace two structural repair jobs in hand on a yacht and power boat......its all go. Have a nice Hogmany when it happens. talk soon. Shugster.
