It has been a while since I posted anything on my USS Constitution. I finished the topmasts back at the end of December but it took about a month of periodic rigging to get the ratlines finished. Around the end of January, I started adding the jib boom and rigging the front of the ship, then added the topgallant masts. This past week during the snow storm, I have pretty much finished the standing rigging on all masts including the last set of ratlines (yeah!) That means starting on the running rigging and putting up the yard arms. About time I am going to have to decided what to do about sails. JoAnne has indicated she might be able to help with cloth sails if I ask real nice :-)
