WOW, that is amazing. Gotta admire you ship builders. I have enough trouble with Armour and Aircraft. Couldn't imagine putting one of these together with all that rigging and detail. Bow Down

Whats the details of the kit, assuming that is a kit.

I am a Norfolk man and i glory in being so

I am extremely impressed but your work with the sheets.  And the rigging is excellent.  Gives me some great ideas down the line.  Good job!   How long did it take before you were happy with it?

I am a man of Lisbon Portugal, in 1968 visited the Victory in Portsmouth

I know the story of heroes of the sea including Admiral Horatio Viscont of Nelson.

If you are a man Norfolk / Nelson, read the history of Portuguese heroes of the sea, sure you may find parallel with the British heroes.
