   Looks really good ,you have inspired me to get the dust sheets off my puffer and finish it (put in dry dock due to illness).

   A bit more detail getting there, not the best but it's all scratch built😆😆😆😆😆

   Think she looks great, a credit to you especially as it's the first boat you've built in fifty seven years. She goes very well, I doubt if a real puffer would go any faster. Looks as if she's all ready to load a cargo for somewhere 'doon the watter'
   
   Good luck with her.

   Nothing wrong with that! when's the smoke and sound going in? Certainly will be able to carry a lot of cargo!

   First trial on open water 8 lb lead ballast, still more detail work to do but couldn't resist trying out, goes well, excuse video sailing and filming without falling in the lake😊

   Great job Bill, she's going to be super stable once you get the ballast in.

    Good progress Bill👍
    Make the ballast useful!
    Lots of scope for special functions and a big fat SLA battery (or two😉) to keep all it going all day long. Good stuff, can't wait to see the fitting out😊
    Cheers, Doug 😎
