Rangeley Guide Boat - 11" LOA

The Rangeley boat derives its name from the Rangeley Lakes region in western Maine where it originated in the late 1800's and was used extensively in the early 1900's.  Primarily built as a guide boat for fishing, but it was also used as a gunning boat for waterfowl.  The hull is lapstrake and made from 1/64th plywood.  It is built in 1:18 scale and is 11 inches in length.  A build log can be found here.

 

Thanks for looking. Gary

I love that it's displayed on a rock. Brings me back to portaging days in Algonquin Provincial Park. 

 

Beautifully done!

This just might be the most beautiful canoe model I've ever seen. Incredible details and authenticity and beautifully displayed as well! Congratulations!

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.
