    All this advice is so honest, thoughtful and quick - I appreciate it all! Chris, thank you for your assessment - please know I harbored no visions of grandeur, so there's zero disappointment on my end. Definitely good stuff to know. Bob, that my 9-year-old kids might like to have a crack at it is a wonderful idea. Maybe a fun winter family project... we can all learn something new. Many thanks for your expertise and for taking the time to respond to my post. If something comes of it, I'll be sure to post an update! All the best! Charlie

    Hi Jim, thank you I added a photo. A few more notes: I imagine the model is at least 100 years old, has a French flag on top, and is good size - it's 36" long and 29" high. cheers Charlie

    Greetings! I'll try to be brief. I know nothing about model ships. I inherited an old (and dilapidated) model ship from my grandmother's home about 10 years ago, and long story short I've decided it needs a new and better home. This seems a good group to connect with about it. Is this a good place to look for a new owner? I would like to give the ship to someone who will restore and enjoy it - I have no idea how old it is or even what type of ship it is, but I know that it sitting in a box in my attic is a shame. I welcome any advice. If this post is inappropriate in any way, please remove it with my apologies! Charlie

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.
