Heart blocks Tools and equipment Sandpaper Glue Knife Brushes/wood stain E Drill/bits 9 File 12 A Shape the jib boom (part 3) to match the length and taper shown on the bowsprit plan. 3 B To create the hole for the pulley (part 9), drill two holes in the jib boom at each end of the hole marked on the plan and then a third one between them. 3 541 SANTISIMA TRINIDAD: Step by Step ™ C 9 Cut away the sections between the drilled holes and then file the hole 3 in the jib boom until it matches the one on the plan, and the pulley can fit inside it. D Place the jib boom back onto the plan. Drill a 1mm-wide hole through the boom at the four points marked with a dotted line on the plan (arrowed). E Ø 0.75mm Smooth the surface of the jib boom with sandpaper and then paint it with wood stain. Then drill a 0.75mm hole through the boom and the hole finished in Step C, as shown. 542 SANTISIMA TRINIDAD: Step by Step ™ F 9 Place the pulley (part 9) into the hole in the jib boom, and then insert an eyebolt through the 0.75mm hole and the pulley. Secure the eyebolt with glue and cut off the ends flush with the sides of the boom (dotted red lines). G Place part 13, the spritsail yard, onto the plan. You will notice that the yards are tapered at both ends, unlike the masts, and that they also have a thinner section at each end, next to 13 a thicker section. H File the ends of the yard, to create the thinner sections, by holding a file on the yard and rotating it back and forth. 543 SANTISIMA TRINIDAD: Step by Step ™ I Use a sanding block and the rotating method to shape the rest of the yard. Keep checking it against the plan to make sure you have the correct shape. J Make sure the yard is evenly shaped, as shown on the plan. Drill two 1mm-wide holes at the ends of the yard, as shown 13 on the plan. K The photo shows how the assembly should look at this stage. Keep any left- over material, as it will be used later. 544 SANTISIMA TRINIDAD: Step by Step ™ Your parts Stage 137 16 16. Spritsail topsail yard B A. Eyebolts A B. 0.15mm natural thread C. 4mm blocks D. 4mm double blocks Tools and equipment Knife Glue C Ruler Brushes/wood stain D File Drill/bits Tweezers Sandpaper A To make the bees (parts 8), cut two 15mm lengths of 2 x 5mm wooden strip and use a file to shape them according to the plan. 8 B 1 When completed, glue the two bees at the end of the bowsprit. Look at the plan to see the positions that they 8 should be placed in. When the glue is dry, stain the bowsprit and bees. 8 545 SANTISIMA TRINIDAD: Step by Step ™ C Drill a 0.75mm hole through both bees and the bowsprit. Refer to the plan to see the correct location. Ø 0.75mm D A Place a pulley in each of the gaps 9 between the bees and the bowsprit, and an eyebolt through each bee and pulley and into the bowsprit. Secure the eyebolts with glue and cut away the ends flush with the bees (dotted red lines). E To make the bindings (parts 2), take some 0.5mm brown thread, glue one 2 end of it to the bowsprit, then wrap it around six times. Secure the other end and cut off the excess. Remember to refer to the plan to see the correct locations for the bindings. Repeat for the other two. 546 SANTISIMA TRINIDAD: Step by Step ™ F Glue the two brackets (parts 7) to each side of the bowsprit, just behind the bees, as shown. 7 G Retrieve the 3mm dowel from Stage 135. Cut it into three lengths to create the two upright parts of the dolphin striker and the dolphin striker bar. Shape them so that they fit together as on the plan, and then them glue into place. 10 H Drill four 1mm holes through the dolphin striker, at the points shown. Ø 1mm Stain the assembly and set it aside for later use. 11 10 547 SANTISIMA TRINIDAD: Step by Step ™ I Place the spritsail topsail yard (part 16) onto the plan and mark the indentations at each end. 16 J As with the spritsail yard on page 543, rotate the ends of the yard underneath a file to create the thinner sections. 16 Smooth the yard with sandpaper and then paint it with wood stain. K The photo shows how the assembly should look at this stage. Keep any left- over material, as it will be used later. 548 SANTISIMA TRINIDAD: Step by Step ™ Your parts Stage 138 J Q Q. 0.80mm brown thread B F B. 0.15mm natural thread F. 5mm deadeyes G. 4mm deadeyes J. Trucks Tools and equipment Knife Glue Sandpaper Round file Brushes/wood stain Drill/bits G A Remove the bowsprit cap from the fret received with Stage 135. Smooth the surface with sandpaper. 4 B 4 Paint the bowsprit cap with wood stain and leave it to dry. Insert a nail through the smaller hole in the cap and press it into the end of the bowsprit at the same angle as the dotted red line to mark the point you will need to drill. Drill a hole in the end of the bowsprit with the same diameter as the nail. 549 SANTISIMA TRINIDAD: Step by Step ™ C Glue the bowsprit cap up against the bowsprit, inserting the nail into the hole drilled in the previous step. D Use a round file to reshape the hole in the bowsprit cap, so it can hold the jib boom at the same angle as the bowsprit. E 5 Create the jib boom saddle (part 5) from 2 x 2mm sapele. Glue the saddle at the end of the jib boom (inset). Test- fit the jib boom against the bowsprit, 3 inserting it through the cap (arrowed). Make any adjustments necessary so that it matches the position shown on the 3 plan, and then glue the parts together. 550 SANTISIMA TRINIDAD: Step by Step ™ F 6 Create the bindings around the bowsprit and jib boom with 0.5mm brown thread. Glue one end of the thread to the bowsprit, wind it around the two spars about 10 times and then secure the other end. Repeat this process to create the three bindings. G Retrieve five heart blocks (E) and cut five 60mm lengths of 0.5mm brown thread. Tie the lengths of thread around the blocks. Refer to the next step to see how long the lengths should be. E H E Tie two of the heart blocks to the jib boom and three to the bowsprit. The middle block should hang from the bowsprit but be looped around both spars. The blocks should all be angled slightly aft, as shown here and on the plan. Secure them in place with glue. E 551 SANTISIMA TRINIDAD: Step by Step ™ I C Tie three 4mm blocks (C) to the jib boom with 0.15mm thread (B), in the positions shown on the plan. B B C C B J B Tie two double blocks (D) to the sides of the jib boom at the same point as the middle 4mm single block, as shown D D K The photo shows how the assembly should look at this stage. Keep any left- over material, as it will be used later. 552 SANTISIMA TRINIDAD: Step by Step ™ Stage 139 Your parts 37 18 Foremast plan 24. Crosstrees 33 18. Foremast 25. Chock 19. Rubbing paunch 32.

Stain the striker and set aside until dry. B To create the dolphin striker straps (parts 12), curl the end of some brass wire round, as shown in the photo 553 SANTISIMA TRINIDAD: Step by Step ™ C Hook the wire around the dolphin striker to make sure that it is the correct shape. D Adjust the length of the wire to create the first strap and glue it over one of the uprights of the dolphin striker. Repeat Steps B-C to create a second strap and glue it over the second upright. 12 E D Drill seven holes in the bowsprit cap, A using the cross-section figure A on the A plan to identify the locations. Glue an eyebolt into each of the holes, and attach single (C) and double (D) blocks C to the ones shown with 0.15mm thread. C D D 554 SANTISIMA TRINIDAD: Step by Step ™ F Drill another hole in the cap, below the bowsprit. Glue an eyebolt (A) into that hole and tie a double block (D) to it.

The latter are hermaphrodite brigs, or “half-brigs”, or simply “brigs” to use the jargon of laconic whalemen. Kate Cory was built in 1856 by Frank Sisson and Eli Allen in Westport Point, Massachusetts for Alexander H. Cory, one of the lead- ing merchants of that community. The ship was named after Alexander’s daughter. Registered at 132 tons net, Kate Cory was 75' 6" in length between perpendiculars, 9' 1-1/2" depth, and had a beam of 22' 1". The last large vessel to be built within the difficult confines of that port, she was also one of the last small whalers to be built specifically for her trade; most of the later whaling brigs and schooners were converted freighters or fishermen. While originally rigged as a schooner, Kate Cory was converted to a brig in 1858, this rig affording steadier motion in heavy seas or while cutting-in whales, not to mention saving much wear and costly repair to spars, sails and rigging.

A bulkhead crossed the ship at the forward end of the first-class cabin passengers' quarters which were built in the after part of the ship, below this poop deck. Without this unity of effort, the sudden swinging backward of the footrope would take the rope out from under a man and throw him off the yard.
