The Quarterdeck Inner Bulwark Fittings
Using Plan Sheet 2, 'Quarterdeck layout' & 'Quarterdeck inner bulwark fittings' for reference, fit the inner bulwark small
cleats (261) (2 per side) and kevels (34) (1 per side) as shown, remembering to drill all sheave holes through the kevels as
shown prior to fitting. It is also advisable to pin the kevels into place as they will take some rigging strain, the outboard face of
the kevel (that which sits against the inner bulwark) must also be shaped to fit flush against the bulwark, rough tree rail and
supporting timberhead (eighth from aft).
The Forecastle Fittings
Identify and paint matt (metal) black the galley flue (265), this should be pinned and glued into place in the coaming on the
forecastle. Identify and remove the two knightheads (81). After painting dull black, these should be glued into position in the
foremost (large) locating holes in the forecastle capping. Identify and remove the eighteen forecastle timberheads (111). After
painting dull black, these should be glued, nine per side, into their locating holes in the forecastle capping (Photo 028).
