    The model is finished. I entered it in the Downeastcon IPMS show in Sanford ME on April 14th, and it placed 1st in its category, and also received "Best Ship" of all ship categories.

    The mainsail is done - 8 lines on the sucker!
  16. MrBlueJacket
    Now the spritsail and foresail are attached.

    I have good hopes. He's probably at the age where the fumes overtake him....gasoline fumes, perfumes, etc.

    All the standing rigging is almost finished (just the last shroud on the mizzen to go)

    Congratulations, Sarah! Your customer file now shows a 10% discount on the next kit you buy from us. Nic

    And here it is furled.
  21. MrBlueJacket
    Made the Spritsail, now ready to furl it.
  22. MrBlueJacket
    Starting the ratlines.

    Is your hull shiny or dull? If dull, then a coat of flat clear will hide the shiny glue, but not the bump. Perhaps some careful sanding will help. I would worry about debonder, try it on a prepared piece of scrap first. Nic

    Nice clean work. Beautiful joinery! Nic

    Did the main forestay and started to rig the foremast.

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.
