    Posted

    Hi,

    The Harriet McGregor was also known as the red gum clipper.

    The captain, from 1874 to 1888 was captain Alex Leslie. His wife was also onboard and they raised 4 of their six children on the Harriet.

    The Harriet McGregor was built from red gum but the decks were from NZ Kauri.

    Length of keel 121ft

    Between perpendiculars 134.2ft

    Beam 27.6ft

    Depth 15.9ft

    and registered tonnage was 331 tons.

    All the above and much more from, "A Staunch Ship's Sea Story" by J.E. Philp Hobart 1934

     

    Regards

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.
