Some updates. The superstructure is done, not painted yet. I had some fun making small cannons from scrap parts. The funnel is on a dowel that is screwed to the deck, some higher test fishing line will secure the funnel to an eye ring with several feet of length so it will act as a recovery float. The top of the rear cannons housing is removable for cannon tweaking. Also shown is the beginning of a motor mount. The wood will be secured to the hull, and be drilled for zip ties to hold down the motor there will also be a screw on either end to hold it fore and aft.
