Will take some detail pics of the damage soon.

Feel free to elaborate on who did the damage and why.

Great work, glad it's back in a safe harbor.

Thank you for your kind words.

There's a bit of a story here....

I last worked on the model about 25 years ago (hence the discoloration of the joints etc.).

It had been borrowed to be shown to some interested parties and was returned to me with quite a bit of damage to hull, mast and other fine detail.

Will take some detail pics of the damage soon.

To cut a long story short, the model was in the excellent care of a friend for all this time.

I've finally received it back home to continue work on it.

The drawings (Norman Ough from David Macgregor) have faded considerably and I'm busy trying to
scan and resurrect what I can.

Best regards to all,

Robhk
