Hi Derek, thanks much for the compliments.
The window is open to show it Can open as on the real boat.
When I saw the real boats pics I knew I had to detail that feature, for me it is quite prominant.
The brass surrond and hinges wer most rewarding to do.

Thanks Mr. Blackbeard, it was an enourmous challenge, much design beyond the provided kit had to be done ( but isn that the way it often is ... )
