    Did some more genoa control testing yesterday. I may have made the genoa slightly too big for the available winch/sheet-length movement. The available internal hull-length only gave me 38cm of sheet length movement.  It'll mean too much internal re-working to get the full 6 turns of the drum available so I'll just have to stick with what I've got.  I expect that the Fisher will not sail closer to the wind than a broad reach, so the set-up may still work OK.  Will try it out on the water/in the breeze, before doing any more adjustments.

    Meanwhile the watchman and his son made a sneak visit last night to check the nav lights and wheelhouse nav- instruments -iimmagination running a bit wild these days, sorry!

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.
