To build the hull, I used a plank on bulkheads built mold.
Due to excellent bending qualities, for frames, keel and hog piece I used red gumwood.
In order to see the internal structure half of the deck is left open. For all major structural elements I used boxwood.
Completed hull with crew seats in place. Note the massive knees used to sustain guns platform.
At the bow is the only sheltered area, used probably for gun powder storage.
