Now glue the cleats (221) into place. Make up and attach the hatch lashing (222).
PHOTO 188: Glue the cleats (221), distributed as shown in the photo. And tie the lashings (223) off to the eyebolts (B) as
shown.
PHOTOS 189 - 193: Check the photos before proceeding. Make up the chain plates (224) using the pulleys (G & J). Attach the
chain plates to the hull through the channels, using the pins (A). Now paint the chain plates black.

using the eyebolts (B).
PHOTO 195: Make up the slings using the thread (C), the blocks (D) and the eyebolts (B). And fix them to the deck in such a
way that you can then fit the helm slings (225).
PHOTOS 196 - 198. Make up the boat supports using the parts (226, 227 & 228). Stain them the colour of sapelli wood and
glue them into place aligned as shown in the photos. And then glue the parts (229 & 230) into place.

the top of each one. Now make up the hawses (234) and tie them off using the thread (235) as shown in the photo.
PHOTOS 203 & 204: Now tie the anchors off to the bitts, using the chains (237). Insert the hawses (234) through the hawse
holes, and then run them as far as the windlass. Now make two holes behind the windlass in which to insert the ends of the
hawses (234). Make up the anchor lashing (236).
PHOTO 205: Make up and attach the lanyards (238) using the eyebolts (B).

glue the skeleton to the base (254).
PHOTOS 210 - 213: Glue the reinforcements (255) into place and then sand the boat down using a sanding block, in order to
even up the surfaces. First glue the rubbing strake (256) in place and then stain the lining strips (257) the colour of sapelli wood
and attach them below. Finally sand down the surface to leave it smooth and stain it again where necessary.
PHOTOS 214 - 217: Glue the top rubbing strakes (258) into place, one on each side of the boat, and then remove the base.

them, along with the parrel trucks (K) to the back of the falconets (279). Now fit the falconet guns onto the supports.
PHOTO 231: Stain the flag mast step (280) the colour of sapelli wood and glue it to the middle of the stern.
PHOTOS 232 & 233: Make up a part (281) and insert it into an eyebolt (B). This part is then fitted by following the indications
shown in the sails and rigging plans.
MASTS AND SPARS
In order to make up the masts the first step is to cut the rods to size, as indicated in the parts list, or by taking measurements
directly from the plans, which are printed in 1/1 scale.
All of the masts and yards have to have a certain conical shape, which you must give them.
In order to achieve this conical shape for the masts, sand down the rod (using a sander), increasing the amount of sanding
down as you get closer to the end at which you want to decrease the diameter. Turn the rod so that you sand it down evenly on
all sides, until you have achieved the diameter indicated in the plan.
