    Thanks Steven, This capstan also served to raise the anchors and is therefore placed on the upper deck. On the upper deck of the rear castle there is a winch for operating the mizzen sail. But, I completely forgot about the knight For the main sail. Thanks for bringing this up.

    Small update on the upper deck layout. During a week of vacation I asked and received information from the Mary Rose museum. Was there a capstan, and if so where? Answer. There is no real evidence that there was one, but also no evidence that there wasn't one. And the most logical place is behind the main mast. Also received a pdf "Cabels and Cablets of the Mary Rose" which contains a lot of information about the layout of the upper deck and the anchor cables. This results in the following setup (not a technical masterpiece as it is sketched on a beach chair, but reasonably clear). Start upper deck.

    Indeed, looks also nice to me.

    Great little scuppers 😉. And barrels for desalting meat or fish.

    Sorry for the loss of your friend. I would go for what you see on the paintings from that time. Replicas do sometimes have a "bug" here and there (the Utrecht probly not 😇). A great model build by one of the members from our model club. https://www.modelbouwclubdedissel.be/blog/galerij-1/statenjacht-de-utrecht-6

    Much better. Regards, Dam you Baker 🤣

    For the preparation of the upper deck, I have been in contact with the Mary Rose organization this week. It appears that the anchors had just been lifted. As a result, they were still busy storing the anchor cables, so that they were still partly on the upper deck. So they went to battle in a rather hasty and disorganized way, it seems. In an area with little room to maneuver. An overloaded ship. etcetera... And, again, great study on the hull shape
  32. Baker
    Did it this way at first. And got the comment that this was not correct. Reason, if the rope breaks the whole sail falls down. Then switched to this method (post 634) without obligation of course 😉

    This little ship looks great. Nice work

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.
