    Hi Keith:
     
       I build my wife a Victorian house. This took a lot of heat off as she said I was spending to much time on my boats. Now she spends hours decoration her new home. It really works.....

    The last month ran away from me.  I drove out to Arizona then got a cold and ended up getting through our annual spring show living on comtrex.
     
      i decided to rough out the deck cabin before going public.  I had fun trying to use steel pins for the bars on the skylight.
     
    Here are a couple of shots of the set up in the Owl's head transportation museum up in Rockland ,Maine.  The main throat halyard crane broke in route but re-stepping the masts was not too hard as i only have a few lines connected at this point. The boats around me are from many members of our group...Downeast Shipmodelers Guild .   On Sunday a nice guy came by and told me he had personally flown all of the planes behind us.  He also collected motorcycles.  I guess sailing passed him by.
     
    cheers

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.
