USS Constitution build II - 35 years later

that is some really lovely work bob .

Well this is absolutely insane. Well done, just read through almost all of this. Looks how I remember it from my elementary school field trip :sweat_smile:

Thanks Steve & MM7. Nice to hear it looks like the real thing.

Sewed in the bolt ropes, added all the blocks (and a thimble) to the main topmast staysail. Ran the line for the haliard and rigged it to the sail to help keep it pulled aft so I could rig all the hanks in place. Tied off the fore upper tack, rigged the downhaul, and then got the haliard all tied off. Also rigged the sheets, which tie off to a cleat on the boatskid. All that is left are the lower tack lines, and the main topmast staysail will be complete.



Take care,
Bob
