Find the American distributor and try working something out with them. Did try reaching Corel directly? -

Ah ha, here are the images that confused me; Because I work in a slightly different order then the plans are numbered. I mistook the preventer and fore stays for the burten pendents. There are no burten pendents as shown in the third image the yard is hauled with tackle. I work off model competing yards, set upper shrouds, attach lower shrouds to mast held in place with tape around the mast add rig yards to mast, then set mast, stays, rigging etc., then set lower shrouds. So in short I was messed up. But I certainly learned allot from everyone.

Hi guys, I should have been clear on what I'm working, it's the HMS Fly. The plans are not clear between the preventer stay, fore stay and burton pendent. Not near my plans now but will attach image of plans to help clarify. Good discussion and Happy New Year. Mark

Hi Tim, good luck on the new project. I'm building the CS as well but I've put it on the self in order to finish up another project that's been begging completion.Your keel issue sounds familiar. My suggestion in to photograph the H--- out of it from all angles, study them carefully if not to your liking, contact your supplier.While you are thinking of getting rope and block replacement consider smaller grating as well the the scale supplied is way to big. Also make sure you add blocking between the bulkheads, in my opinion they will help when it comes to an even and smooth planking job. Have a happy holiday... If you want to contact me send a pm. Mark

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.
