Thank you all for your kind words, I'm glad you like it.

Rog, the dimensions were found on her registration, which I found through archives in Prince Edward Island. The registration gives a very good idea of the vessel, dimensions, number of decks, number of masts, construction details as well, ie: square stern and carvel built. The photograph that the gentleman sent, confirms everything mentioned in the registration. Marvelous feeling, to be able to see an old sailing ship that my own Great Grandfather built and sailed.

Bob
