Brett:
As Scott indicated, the standing rigging set up was a mixed bag. The funnel shrouds were set up with bullseyes. The foremast forestays were set up with turnbuckles. There are some areas where I can't really see what they used like in the well deck areas and the foestays of the mainmast and in the aft well deck.
I have never seen any indications of hearts or
deadeyes.

: Was the Titanic standing rigging set to bullseyes, hearts, turnbuckles, or what? Cameron's Movie shows at least the funnel stays with what appear to be bullseyes, but does anyone know for sure?
