Thanks guys! I put the bungs on top thinking I could spy anyone trying to take an extra ration of water/rum. I am really liking the deck myself james. I am very pleased with how it has turned out. It seems to be taking on a good weathered look.

How did you get that great weathered look to the deck?
I like your canons and trucks. I've only gotten a fourth of mine finished and it seems like it's taking forever to do them.

BTW did you know that you can put your pictures in chronological order by numbering them?

Pete
The deck material is a wood called Mukaly at least that is what the kit manufactures call it. It resembles basswood or something similar. I used Minwax Driftwood stain on the deck. I applied it with a brush and then wiped up the excess.
