Good Afternoon all.
Having temporally stopped work on the Riva, I've been doing a little work on this one.
As I'm making it up as I go along, progress is very slow due to me not being able to decide exactly how I want the boat to look, but I now have a plan in my head on which way to go, so, here are a few pictures of the work so far, not very much really.
The cabin sides widow cutouts are not finished as I need to decide on the the size and shape of it, or them in the remaining space, I'm leaning toward 1, picture 2039.
The huge missing part of the foredeck is due to the Fairy only having a tiny foredeck, so the part supplied in the kit was as you can see, a tad small.
I'll fill that without difficulty but it will be a bit of a fiddle as the deck is bowed, picture 2041.
The front window will be 1 piece Plexiglass with a darkish tint, shaped as a big curve running back to the sides.
The flying bridge will be removable if needed and will be about 80% of the length of the wheelhouse/forward cabin/saloon.
Off to SLEC tomorrow as I need some wood.
That's about all for now as I can feel a headache coming on, just one of many I think. Mike.
