This weekend I took a trip to the Mystic Seaport in Mystic, CT where they are in the process of restoring the Charles W. Morgan, the last surviving wooden whaling ship.
If I remember correctly, someone of this group is involved in the restorations done at Mystic Seaport. If so, I tip my hat to you. Wow, what a massive undertaking the restorations of these ships are.
