Looks great Larry. Definitely adding the extra details will take your boat to the next level.
I knew very little about boats before I started building them.
I did a lot of research, especially learning the terminology to use, as I figured some boaty expert would call me out.  On the old RRL forums, Frank Palmer was a big help as he worked on Fishing Trawlers for 16 years.
But at the end of the day, if it looks like a reasonable representation of a boat, that's good enough for me.

Rob thank you. I figured it doesn't hurt to learn something new every so often. I appreciate your direction on this build. I used to watch a show called the "Deadliest Catch" on the Discovery channel; they were brave souls.
