    Pretty neat! How well does that water channel work? I see that it is a lot lower than most of the other water channels I've seen, and that there isn't anything in the bow or stern. Do you have any troubles with that or is it just fine?

    PS: I like the inside-view photo. It really looks like a shipyard construction photo.

    Actually the Bow has a big ramp, but it's hard to see in these photos since I was concentrating on the amidships section. Honestly, the old water channelling didn't work very well which is why I'm building it up one layer at a time. When done, it will be another 1/8" - 1/4" high. The stern area does concern me, but I'm working on the biggest problem first (the bulged area). I really like that inside the ship shot as well.

    No new internal shots? What happened to the resheet during the refit?

    So you have twin sterns, and twin haymakers on each side nice. The Konieg we will be working on, we plan on doing the same gun placement.

    According to the published MSDS it has a specific gravity of 1.09828 so it shouldn't float, but that might be close enough that it depends on how dirty your water is.
