Note:
I have created separate blogs to describe the building process of twin engine and boiler, as well as the finishing work on the hull. This present blog remains as a kind of integrating site for the entire project.

In blog format the last post is published top most. Thus, the first one – the beginning of the whole story... – is located further down.

By clicking on pictures and diagrams they are displayed full size.
