Might want to be a little careful about bending those bow planks, looks like they may be breaking on that first bulkhead. I haven't built a Mamoli kit in a long time. Looks like they are using laser cut bulkheads now? That should really improve their symmetry, which has been a problem in the past. How well did everything go together? Clare | ||

Cheers Ray | ||
