I decided to give the floor in my model a tiled floor. I
mottled on some grey and tan paint and then scribed
the tile squares onto the floor panels. Note that I did
not do the forward deck as this is fiberglass on the full
size ship.
Start assembly by gluing the risers to the lower floor
panel. You can also glue in the stern wall when you get
the aft deck on the risers. Take your time to get
everything glued straight and square. Errors in this step
will multiply later on.

Next install the bathroom wall and bedroom walls.
You could also install a matress made from a scrap of
balsa that would sit on top of 4-12.

Using the basswood parts, double up the parts as shown for thickness. Sand and paint your desired interior colors.
