Continue with the rigging of the spritsail Added some rope coils. And some blocks that are not in use because the spritsail is stored. Also added a bucket Spritsail and yard ready And in position. The idea is to tie it up (yellow line). My experience with sailing is minimal (1 trip with little wind and calm water). But what I have learned was: everything that is loose starts to swing around and cause problems later.. Thanks for following

The yards and sails First the spritsail. When not in use, it was usually stored in the beakhead. The most common method is this one. Problem one, where do I tie all the ropes without belaying pins. Solution: right or wrong, who knows. But belaying pins in this period is probably definitely wrong How do I attach the yard to the bowsprit Not needed in this setup, but I will provide someting like a "spritsailyard sling" at the yard. Serving the spritsailyard sling And i have blocks Work at the shipyard has restarted 👍

The finnished and numbered model. The contents of the box were not really what the drawing on the box promised 👎 It was a challenge to correct this Thanks for following this build -
This is indeed not good I think it is best that the grain of the wood of the deadeyes is in the same direction as the holes you drill in them. Think about it first before you do drastic things 😉

Golden Hind by Rock_From_Korea - 1:48
Baker replied to Rock_From_Korea's topic in - Build logs for subjects built 1501 - 1750
Very nice planking But it is best to taper the planks towards the bow. Otherwise you could get in trouble later. https://modelshipworld.com/forum/98-planking-downloads-and-tutorials-and-videos/ -
Hello! A small update after a long absence. This winter most of my spare time went to military model building(build logs in the shore leave corner), and in between i sewed the " cringles" to the sails. First, a sketch is made of how many are needed for each sail. Work in progress WE sewed cringles... The sails are finally ready, now i have to make blocks and then I can start with the running rigging.

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.
