    Looking very good, Annie. The Delilah posts are looking very smart. Since you're putting the bowsprits underneath the plywood foredeck, will you be adding scotchwomen made of the hard gum timber, to take the chafe of the chain?

    Progress report:

    As the photo doesn't look any different (again) here's another one that shows what I've been doing.

    Working on the foredeck. 

    The rest of the photos can be seen here.

    Photo 7 really gives an idea of size and room. Coming along nicely Annie.

    I've updated my photo albums again, here.  Since the last ones, I've been working on the foredeck - cutting out for the bow rollers, fitting wood to support them, fitting mooring posts and framework for the deck.  I've also done some of the Coppercoat.  This all needs to be applied wet-on-wet and doing it in one day was out of the question, so I've divided it into three sections: bottom, starboard bilge panel, port bilge panel.  Well four, really, because the final one will be the skegs, rudders and bilge boards, which are still largely a figment of my (and David's) imagination.

    The usual progress report photo looks the same as its predecessor(s!), so I've put one of the Coppercoated hull instead:

       " ...there is nothing - absolutely nothing - half so much worth doing as simply messing about in junk-rigged boats"
