O tej łodzi

This is a display model. Bought on ebay as a partial build (hull).
Finish the hull, eg stern lights, cannons, etc.
Fitted the rigging, blocks and ropes.
The standing rigging have over 1000 clove hitches.
The rigging took weeks, and i now understand the saying "getting to know the ropes"
I did not make a build blog as it would be very boring due to the build pace.

Beautiful job Hillro, shows a man with much patience (and small fingers)😁. Well worth the time taken, not a model to be rushed.
