    Zwaard. Preparation works. I cut wedges, glued them together for the fitting. After refinement, I used assembly dryer to part the work material.

    Dear wefalck, I'm very happy to find in your person such a wonderful connoisseur of Boeier theory, I have learned a lot from you and in the future I hope for your help and consultatations. Not speaking the language doesnt allow me to read primary sources. I'd be happy to get your help. I absolutely agree with you on your point about the keel, I named it so just to simplify. Thank you for your remarque, but i think the element itself was made correctly. The plank has a thiсkening in places of coupling with stems , and in the area of body-frame it decreases in thickness. I made it probably half millimeter thicker than it should be, but the difference will be cut off later . My best regards. Alexander.

    Here’s what i have as a result.

    Dear wefalck Thank you so much for the information. Here are some more pictures, that give a good view of the knot (construction element).Boeier captivated me by its unique, one-of -a -kind architecture. My best regards. Alexander.

    Dear wefalck Thank you very much for Your attention to my work. The information you have given me on the history of "Sherver" is very interesting to me. My best regards. ( Mon pays de résidence se situe environ 1500 km sud-est.)

    Dear BETAQDAVE This element is called uitvip (mastluik) The construction of Boeier has a possibility to change the mast from working position to the transportion position. This hatch is specially conceived for this purpose. The elemet that caught your attention is a removable cover of this hatch. I think the photos will explain everything. My best regards.

    Thank you, Carl, for such warm words. Sparrowhawk.
  18. KORTES
    I’m very touched by your attention to my work .
  19. KORTES
    I have refined rubbing strip. As I don’t like to paint, probably because I don’t know how to do it , I decided to use black veneer instead of paint. I “painted” broadsides, remade railing, taking into account the width of the “paint layer”.
  20. KORTES
    Yes, indeed, there are some similarities.
  21. KORTES
    My honorable colleagues, please let me show some transitional results of the stern.

    Dear Valeriy, It's with great interest that i have studied Your report. I would like to emphasize an extremely high culture of production and outstanding mastery of construction technology, one can feel the a hand of The Master. I think that Your school in shipmodelling is a TOP aerobatics . I wish You luck and inspiration. I will follow with great interesting the constructionof this legendary ship. My best regards Alexander .
  23. KORTES
    Yes, you are right, this stage of building was the most difficult for me, and i'm glad i managed to assemble the broadsides well. Just like you, i liked this dutch yacht for its unique uncommon form. My best regards Alexander.
  24. KORTES
    Dear Patric and Jan. I'm very grateful for giving me this valuable and helpful information. My best regards Alexander.

    I had spent some time working on the boardsides, the adjustments had to be made in different levels and angles.

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.
