Joe, well it looks like you’re on your way for the Santa Maria build. One thing I found helpful was after the skeleton was finished, was not using the side locks. Having the freedom of rotation (About 270 degrees) work well for me. Especially during the planking phase.
Van, I was scratching my head on that and wondering, why use the sides locks? And you just answered my question. Will do, thank you! I agree the rotation is necessary. I saw you painted the slipway and I think I am going to as well.
nice looking Slipway, should aid in the build process, are you intending to display the ship on the slip way, or just use it for the build, if just using for the build I wouldn't paint or stain, if your going to use it to display stain.
Very intriguing start, Joe! I eagerly await the future updates on this build! I look forward to it.
Thank you!

@@genojoe3176 Painting the slipway gives it a cleaner look. Plus, photographing the ship along
the way has a nice contrast and doesn’t blend in.

kip, I am going to use it for the build only. I ended up painting it satin white.
