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.

Hi Michael
Yes, I do have some pics of the buildingproces, and I will uoload them as soon as possible. By the way; it´s the first RC-sailing model I have build.
Hi Nils
The pics with white sails are from the models "early life". Later on, I died the sails to a more authentic color (I hope).
You´re right; The model is quite big; about 1,8 m over all, and I use an (very ugly!!!) external keel that weighs about 15 kg´s.
Hi Tarbrush
Nice to hear that you like my pics of "Heimdal" under way in a rather strong breeze. :-)
Best regards to all
