    Chris, you've got me hitting my resource material trying to figure out the lines of the new venture. The stern looks interesting to me. Maybe a small contest to keep us all busy researching American Clippers is in order.

    They are located in Japan, the shipping to the US was fast and not expensive at the time. Good company to work with and they have a nice product line.

    I moved this to the proper forum area.    Starlight and others have given sound advice.   Having been there and done that when I bought my first model... I find this advice excellent.

    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.

    It was actually posted on MSW and was moved to the NRG's website with other articles.  When it was reviewed by staff it was deleted due to some inaccurate information and formatting issues.  It will not be re-posted. There is a paper on planking now in progress that will be posted shortly.

    Hi all,
    I responded to Mike about the article which I hand in my file. I checked with Kurt about posting it, he in turn checked with the author. The author has granted permission to post the article. I hope it proves helpful with your decking questions. I've attached a PDF, enjoy.

    Mike, I have it and I'll PM you. But I have a suggestion for the moderator... If possible can I post the article? I'm sure others would benefit from it as well.
