Glenn, welcome to MSW fellow jarhead.

Eric, none of us like redos but it seems (for me at least) to be part of the game. There's a great sense of accomplishment after a successful redo. One can sit back and take pride in knowing that you've given it your best shot. It looks like the 'fix' worked and worked well. Now, it's but a mere footnote and just another part of the journey. But one thing and maybe the most important thing that will come from this, you'll never feel guilt or regret for not correcting the problem and you learned something. it doesn't get any better, congratulations.

Help with rigging a 1920s pond racer
Keith Black replied to Dobro23's topic in Masting, rigging and sails
Eberhart posted this earlier, did you read this? Search Google for 'pond yacht' and there are many, many photos. I'm sure the information you seek is out there, you've just got to dig a little. -
Rob, the comparison images on your Glory look spot on, very nice.

I use FolkArt acrylic craft paint, Vintage White # 515. It's not a brilliant white and has very little yellow pigment.

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.
