I have one last belaying point to tie up and put a rope loop on. The model has been in my study for months now and I just can’t get the enthusiasm to clean up that last pin. It looks great as is and one has to look closely to see the loose line. Also I should probably add some more gear in the whale boats. I just totally lost interest. ps, the untied line is for the cutting stage.

The belaying key labels on my Gjoa sail plan are all in English except for one pin labeled ørefiken. I assume this is Norwegian as Gjoa was a Norwegian ship. Can someone translate this for me? Google translate isn’t helpful. It says it means cuff or slap on the face. thanks

About the NRG
If you enjoy building ship models that are historically accurate as well as beautiful, then The Nautical Research Guild (NRG) is just right for you.
The Guild is a non-profit educational organization whose mission is to “Advance Ship Modeling Through Research”. We provide support to our members in their efforts to raise the quality of their model ships.
The Nautical Research Guild has published our world-renowned quarterly magazine, The Nautical Research Journal, since 1955. The pages of the Journal are full of articles by accomplished ship modelers who show you how they create those exquisite details on their models, and by maritime historians who show you the correct details to build. The Journal is available in both print and digital editions. Go to the NRG web site (www.thenrg.org) to download a complimentary digital copy of the Journal. The NRG also publishes plan sets, books and compilations of back issues of the Journal and the former Ships in Scale and Model Ship Builder magazines.
