Surprise

 |
Keel and bulkhead assembly. |
 |
|
 |
False 'strengthening' deck fitted. With the false deck in place the keel and bulkheads are automatically pulled into alignment. |
 |
|
 |
The profiled slot in the lower aft face of bulkhead 16 denotes the 'true' lower face of this bulkhead. The 'extra' material beneath (top picture) should be tapered form the forward face back to this slot (lower picture), this method provides ample surface area for the stern end of the hull planking to terminate against. |
 |
|
 |
The main gunport pattern fitted to the bulkheads. (Research Note 1: there are only 5 gunports per side on the quarterdeck, aft of the waist.) |
 |
Note that the upper edge of the main gunport pattern is aligned to the upper edge of the bulkheads. |
Model designed entirely in-house by Rich, Dave and John.
