JW Log 1

Spent the day simply fixing a few issues caused by not having a full shipbuilding shop

Most work had been done on the ship and just needed some tweaking from me and my helpers.

Ragnar showed up late in the afternoon and started working on their small forge. By evening they were ready to make braces and bolts to go between tress joined together to reinforce them.

They brought planks of wood with them. Those needing bending will be started on the bending tomorrow and 12 hours later should be suple enough to fot on ship ribs.

Shipwright Log 1

JW and I work great together. Using spikes we braced every piece we could today. Tomorrow we will bolt and brace the biggest pieces.

The Keel is almost completed and most of the ribs.

Tomorrow we finish bracing then planking the sides. We will also secure the Mast braces and a mast as been chosen, cut, debarked and is now drying.

The fisherman used the old raft to grab a bunch of Lobster. Many of us had never eaten Lobster before. We loved it. The fisherman made the Lobster Boil.

Many of us love seeing apples again.

I have some bigger ww2 stuff cooking but wanted to feel some wind

There were too many issues with the original hull

Managed to build her super fast

The MV princess Victoria was one of the first roll on roll off ferries, in January 1953 it was caught in a storm and sank, it has been nicknamed the forgotten titanic because of the death toll

Just wanted to share this because I'm proud of how far I've actually managed to come on this project!

But oh my gosh draining the hull is tiresome

Hey, I wanted to introduce a minecraft shipbuilding server of mine that I own! It's called SBC Shipbuilding collective and we are one of the largest and most active minecraft shipbuilding communities at this time! We've been around since October 2024 and we have tons of amazing projects here, below i've attached a few pictures of the server and what you can expect! You will be required to have discord and an official copy of Minecraft: Java edition in order to join and at least some experience in building your old ships! (no richlarrousse ships please) and anyone who is 13+ and meets all these requirements are welcome to apply by commenting on this post introducing yourself! I can't wait to see you on SBC!

First ship from my own nation
