Working on the hull and superstructure ,The hold lifts out to allow access my brothers going to do the mechanical side for me he has a motor no details yet , battery pack etching will be in the hold covered by dummy coal ,That's the theory anyway

Puffing along nicely Mark 👍
Good block carving on the stern 👍
Just had to do something similar on my cutter restoration, replaced parts of a cardboard tape reel 😡 with a carved hard balsa block.
Cheers, Doug 😎
I started this puffer a while ago(2 years actually) I was going to be for one of my good lady's landmark birthdays (hold to eventually be filled with presents) but the big C decided to intervene and the build was put on the back burner ,Once I was a bit better I did a little bit on her (the puffer not the wife) when I could .she's nearly done (again the puffer) will post more photos when she's in the harbour (?)🤣.
Cheers Marky👍

She’s really looking lovely. (Probably not a good adjective for A hard working boat!) Glad your recovery permits you to work on it. Be sure to post her next sea trials! 😊
