Just a few lines to tell you about the excellent service I had from Barrys Model Lettering. After a bit of consultation via e-mail I ordered the lettering and it was delivered in 24 hours. Just what I wanted and easy to apply. There are some pics attached to show you the results. Thanks to Barry for his help and super service.
As far as the boat herself is concerned there is still a bit of rigging to do, deck lights to fit and some small detail to add. Then there is the vexed question of weathering - how much is enough, if you know what I mean. I worry about starting it, then feeling that I've overdone it - and its too late then. Many of the boats in the Scottish fleet are very well kept, despite the hard life that they (and their crews ) lead, so, rust from stem to stern is not what I'm after. Your views welcomed.
Best Wishes
Douglas
