    I am keeping tags on this thread as part of my research is to find some data on dutch ships in 1677 in the hope of one day making a model of some sort. I have all of Ab’s books and was at the Rljka museum in May and stood next to the Rex. The museum was a WOW. below is a photo of the film Tobago 1677 where the Dutch fought the French resulting in 20 wrecks in the harbour.

    In my research i discovered that the ship is the Roebuck class, she was originally called the Janus. Ironically she is one of the ships i intend to build for which i have all the plans and data.

    The divers have decided to give me the items that they dived up which I will keep and offer to a local museum at some time in the future. Here are three other artefacts taken many years ago. The first is a brick, the second a dead eye and the last is a block

    Some of the bronze pieces that were recovered from the wreck of the HMS Dromedary which sank in Trinidad in 1800. The horseshoe shaped piece looks like it came from the bow at the keel, the bronze pins would have come from various timber connections, not sure where the ring came from nor the teeth piece. Perhaps someone may have a better idea???

    Today some friends of mine helped me dive on the SS Naparima and unfortunately the current was too strong and the divers nor the ROV were able to get to the wreck. So that the day was not a total wast of time they dove on another wreck that is well known and retrieved some brass pins and a brass ring that was sitting on the bottom. The wreck has some 20 cannons on the bottom and lots of stuff spread all over the ocean floor. Unfortunately she has been pilfered over the years and today is of little archeological value.

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.
