Day 40 -42

I have made some progress over the last few days especially the last two as I finally got the planking I need. I made sure I brought a lot more than I need this time so I don't have to wait 4 weeks again. I have added a few more touches to the weathering that I think was needed and managed to fit quite a few more parts.

The Captains Cabin is now in place but still a bit of work inside to do before we move the furniture inside.

A nice bit of rust on those handrails will certainly give it the hard worked look - great work Andy. Cheers Derek
