    Aloha nui e, Pat Thank you for the helpful suggestions. My nam is Ron I live in a small town on the central coast of California. In 1999 The Bark Endeavour stopped in Morro Bay and I had the opportunity to serve as a docent while they were in port. In November of that year I served as volunteer crew in the Hawaiian waters. While the Bark was in Nawiliwili, Kauai, Hawaii I surprised my wife by having the Captain perform a vow renewal ceremony in the great cabin the date was 17 November 1999. That is the reason I'm working on building a model for our home. Presently I am working on the shrouds and ratlines on the mizzenmast mast, and trying to tie the dead eyes on the top for the upper shrouds which is challenging for my fat fingers. Any suggestions on how to tie the futtocks? Having Parkinson's makes the challenge greater. I just work on it when the Parkinson's is settled down. Having been up in the rigging helps me understand things a little better. Mahalo nui __/)_ ron

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.
