Michael I thank you for your nice comments, it was not so difficult with the rigging, masts and sails because I built the "Gorch Fock" synchrone, with just about 2 months ahead of the Pamir, so all experienced well working things and techniques could be adopted and notso good Solutions in Details could be avoided resp. improved on the second ship.

Yes Nenad, my Pamir will be carrying a full set (32 single sails) each sail fully rigged with running rigging, I know it is hard to imagine this,in my scale Chosen, but that was one of the challenging obligations I set to myself, as well as sewing the sails myself, because I found nobbody else who would do it for me. It was also an excursion into Tallship sail rigging, and what all was needed to control, hoist, lower, reff, those sails, when doing the necessary Research hereto. The build log shall end up with the Pamir completely rigged and with a full set of sails, and braced to the shrouds, as if going in a stiff breeze. Just peep into my Album of the "Pamir 4-mast barque" in MSW Topic "Gallery of completed scratch built models" if you wish upfront to see the final result at this stage already have fun with the coming build log parts Nils

Build log part 32 with every new Progress in rigging it has to be considered carefuly, if there still will be enough Access to the running rigging, the sails operational ropes, the belaying Pins, for the soldering iron for wire Connection Points, etc..., especially the belaying Points around the mastfoot racks are critical many of the masts and Yards Tacklings are pre-belayed to the decklevel pinracks and sheaved through blocks mast spaces, Yard tackles an then with Surplus rope-end rolled on to a smáll Piece of Wood, until the sails are ready to be fitted, the rigging seem never to end... unmistakeable... a P-Liner in Laeisz colours the Yards racks allow spheric move in relation to the mast boat cradles not mounted yet the bracing tackles go from the Jarviswinches to blocks at the mast then down to bulwark Level and from there to each the 3 lower mainyards of the three mainmasts, (shall Show this Tackling in scetch later on) preparing the boats (acc. to coloured historic photos of the wrecked boats) portside looking foreward, the aft Davit for the larger boat is situated on the poopdeck the front smaller boat (welldeck boat stations has to be pushed backwards under the larger boats Davits, when bringing out the foreward boats, inwards behind the backstays, (since 1951 changes) have to be pushed back under the free space where the Davits are. The skid-cradles shall conform to the actual ones, still to be fitted Build log part 33 to follow.... Nils
