Finished the Ensign staff and stern light this morning, then did another trim test, though she has been for a sail test sometime last year but the pond had just started it's annual weed infestation so it was a short affair, I knew she floated about right, went forward/astern and turned ok then her props got fouled so had to abandon that one, since then she's had a lot more fitted so I was a bit concerned about the boot topping, so I was relieved when she floated right on the bottom of the boot topping, as she almost fills the bath it's quite difficult to see if she's upright so I sight the main mast up with a vertical joint in the wall tiles with this method I could see she had a slight list to port, a further 3.5 ounces of ballast cured that, tested her bow thruster and motors/rudders etc. and all satisfactory, in fact she has a very pleasing sound in forward throttle, I noticed all the ships I've built have all had their own sound, so now waiting for a nice day and without the winds we've had here lately to do a long sea trial, I still have some items to make and fit but I don't think these will have an impact on her flotation.
