It's finally finished.

The only thing I'm not happy with is the decals on the cabin. I tried to feather in some neat Gloss Cote around the edges to try and get rid of them showing before I gave it it's final 2 coats, it seemed to work immediately after I did it but after it had all dried the edges of them are still visible. I could remove them and repaint those areas but to be honest I can't be bothered for the amount of work it will take.

At least I have now learnt that the type you soak off in water before applying them would have been better.

It's had it's bath test the ensure there are no leaks and I made up small sealed bags of sand to put inside as ballast which works very well.

So tomorrow (Sunday 11th April) I am going to take it to Kearsney Abbey near to us and try it out on the water.

I cheated in the end and bought a bespoke name from an online company

I meant to ask before; is the plant a native of GC or the islands, or is it another variety?

Don't know it's name but the standard one the farmers grow in Gran Canaria 

Good news John.

Well it's been 5+ years now. Did you build anything?
