I’ve been sanding the Hull so that the Gun Ports are flush with the Hull sides.

The line of the Hull above the Wales have a concave nature to it, so I’ve been trying to get it even…

But to my constirnation, I made another error when I was a bit too enthusiastic with the sanding and I over sanded the Bollard on the Port Side of the Forecastle… Ugh… I hate when that happens! I should have known better. At least I stopped soon enough so I have something to work with when I do my secondary Planking.

I put Putty on all the parts that had flaws or holes in it…

The over-sanded Bollard is completely saveable. Because there still requires a Caprail and Handrail at this part.
