Very nice work. Both ship and the photo. I just started back on my model after to much procrastinating.

Thank you
There was a very generous amount of procrastination that went into my model as well.

I have always love models of sailing ships but I am sure would never have the patience to put one together. She's a beauty. Nice photo as well!

Lovely work. I lived for a short period of time in Lunenburg and was a mere five minute drive to where the Bluenose ll was located.

This was my 3rd. The first two were made a looooong time ago and did not survive a move from NJ to NM. I never got around to repairing them.

Beautiful work Paul! I have the Baltimore Clipper "Harvey/1847" under way, the hull is planked and all of the deck furniture is complete. It is a very long term project, one of my more optimistic ones! Your rigging looks immaculate, congratulations!

Wow! excellent rigging details. One of my pet peeves about many model sailing vessels is no one gets the rigging anywhere nearly correct. You have done an excellent job here down to the lines on the mainsail(s) used to shorten sail. The photo ain't bad either.

Thank you
I’m always amazed when I read about someone who’s made many high quality wooden ship models. Especially from scratch, plank on frame models. They must work MUCH more efficiently than I do.
Good luck with your project!
