Hi CommodoreH, thank you very much for the compliments and your interest.
In theory there is little left, in practice (at my speed) there is a lot left.
After completing the cannons, he will make the lifeboats.
I know that the Amati and Mantua company sell many wooden kits for building lifeboats of various sizes and at low cost but I prefer to make them myself.
I have already completed the drawings of the two lifeboats that will go alongside the ship.
The design of the lifeboat (or two lifeboats) that will go amidships is still being completed.
In addition to the lifeboats, I will have to create the system to support them and put them in the water.
Then the binnacle with the compass and some running rigging are missing.
As for the water test, I have already done the first navigation as you can see in this video.
The lake was very large and deep.
He sailed both under sail and under motor, but given the almost total absence of wind (next time I'll check the weather forecast first) I didn't carry out the tacks completely under sail.
If you mean actual sea, no. This model is not suitable for navigation at sea.
