Roger, I appreciate the advice! I think what I'll do is start re-working the hull and do the rigging over from scratch. I wasn't aware that the mast went all the way down to the keel, although in retrospect that does make a lot of sense (Obviously they don't bolt it down to the deck, duh! :lol: ) On...

I'm particularily a fan of your various aircraft schemes that you've put together for A...
