Hello,

Well, this is not POB but not a real POF either, hence i think i'll post here.

So, after fearing that mamoli went out of business, i learned that a friendly Czech guy aquired the rights, i purchased my kit from Him and Started the build:

Ok, so the Box Arrived, here are my findings during Unboxing:

PROS/Nice Things:

- The Rigging Blocks/Deadeyes, Barrels and big buckets are of a better quality than i saw in the previous Mamoli kits, replacement doesnt seem neccessary
- Laser Quality seems fine to me, some discoloring exists but only on parts which will not be visible or need to be painted over
- New designed spacers for the frames - there is a single crossbeam with cutouts now connecting the frames
- Deck beams are supplied already bent - no more gluing and bending to shape
- Redesigned plans and sheet with explanation of all numbering of the Laser-Cuts

Here is the Progress so far:

Also ordered Cadldercraft cannons and Carronades as Replacement (because i like brass guns better and the Gunnade on the Top Deck is wrong anyway)

One Finished Cannon
