Not to pick nits, but the helm (steering wheel) is correct as Jimmy drew it. They were installed that way on older boats because the gears that connected the wheel to the rudder pretty much required the little “doghouse” over the assembly…Now, if Jimmy would just get rid of the extra little jib-club out on the bowsprit, we’d be looking good, like a schooner should!Minor carping from an old windjammer guy who really enjoys the heck out of the strip…And Jimmy, it IS a good lookin’ schooner!
