Dear Glenn and mtdoramike, Thank you for your kind encouragement. I didn't flesh out my reason for selling in this post because I already sold most of my kits and tools through this forum. My wife and I have sold our house and are moving to a 2-bedroom apartment. To facilitate our downsizing I sold my Byrnes saw and disc sander, and 7 or 8 kits that I never touched. You see, I went quite crazy with accumulating toys when I embarked on this hobby. All of those kits had become more of a burden than a joy, and I'm glad that they are in better homes now. All was not for naught, though. Since you are both so encouraging, here are a few photos of the Bluenose that I almost completed. All best wishes.

Hello, I'm offering this kit for sale. Full disclosure: I started this kit. I cut out the center keel and the bulkheads. I sanded the center keel and made a template to trace, then cut, the rabbet. Then I chickened out and stopped. The kit is complete and otherwise untouched. Because I started it, I'd like to offer it for the cost of packing and shipping only. I'll also throw in Bob Hunt's practicum for the kit. The shipping amount will depend on your distance from my home in Boston. I'll accept PayPal or Venmo. Thanks for taking a look. Glen Boston, MA

Hello, everyone, Thanks for your patience with me and please forgive me if I'm slow to respond. It's tricky to manage all the DMs. The sander is spoken for. That's a popular item. I've had interest in the saw, the Fair American, the Rattlesnake supplemental wood package and the Constitution wood package. Thanks, Glen

Greetings, Shipwrights! I'm reluctantly posting this list for sale. I got into ship modeling about 20 years ago. With stars in my eyes I bought a bunch of kits, custom wood packages, practicums, and tools; I fantasized about the stunning ships I would build. Now, my wife and I are considering downsizing into a smaller place and I've come face-to-face with the hobby that I started with gusto but have neglected in recent years. All kits are untouched. Let me know if you have any questions, and thanks for taking a look at my stuff! Glen Cherry Boston, USA

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.
