Tks Footski, Yes... tempting to case her up and be done with it. However, I have really wanted to show a ships boat being hoisted in the "launch " position, using the proper block and tackle and yard configuration. I don't believe I have ever seen that modeled before, although, I am sure it has been done. I have seen a ships boat lowered to the model base.. but that made no sense to me to do it that way. So, now I'm starting to fit out the detail of a much smaller boat, giving as much detail as I can. I'll show one boat on the ship, in her chocks and one suspended over the side with her lifting tackle.... this will take me a while.
