I just put together a new website at www.princedeneufchatel.com dedicated to this fine ship and the men who crewed her. It is a one stop shop for anything/everything I can find on her.
Let me know what ya think!

Just wanted to say I love your ship! Awesome job!

What details are you adding on? You will post pics on your site when you're done, won't you?

Thanks...but it is nothing in comparison to some of the ships I've seen being built in other parts of the world...most notably Europe. Any way I am in the process spending considerable time and funds on detail work to the deck for things like carronade/cannon rigging, cannon ball/racks, cannon tools, belaying pins/racks, several hundred eyebolts, spare yards/spars, 9 crew members (will not sail on ship), buckets, barrels, ropes, cleats...etc. I also ordered a new set of sails which I plan to mount more realistically than just glue them to the yards like they are now. I hope she still floats when I'm done...lol I want her to look good in static display as well as on the water. [8D] To answer your question, I will be adding the detailed progress to my website as I go.
