KevinM Posted March 4, 2023 Author Share Posted March 4, 2023 I say maybe 2/4hrs left on this one.I have added angle braces to the starboard side to three stanchions,added chain to the stern and added chain to port.I still have three angle braces for port,flat coat,glass for Kalotte,anchor and rigging.The final stage will be the hull weathering and another flat it will be light. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Martinnfb Posted March 6, 2023 Share Posted March 6, 2023 Excellent finish, for some reason I really like the mines in such stark contrast with the sleek lines of the rest of the boat. Bravo! Cheers Martin 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I played Baseball in German leagues for 25 years and I absolutely love the game. I never had an opposing pitcher only near the 100 mph mark, but would really like to be the batter, not to hit, but to get the feeling. The strangest thing, that happened to me was a lefthanded pitcher calling for time in the middle of the count and got another glove and continued throwing with the other hand ace style. He struck me out and left me gaping . Cheers Rob 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No need for, it seems with his strikeout ratio. I was a good contact hitter, but that man got my blind . Cheers Rob 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
