Milt, I have individual sheets for each stage of the biuld, and 3 large overall plans that cover all other aspest of the build. No booklet as such.

Then you carefully reach in with a wire, or some other suitable tool, with a drop of super glue (CA glue) and fix them to the deck. Good luck. Dennis

Milt, can I ask what stage you are at with your build. Have you come across any other problems I should know about. It appears the rear transome where the captains quarters are a little out of shape...also the metal fittings are some what badly cast. Im thinking I might make my own, this also applies to the figure head on the bow.
