    Thank you. Yes I found the forum because in the Bluejacket box there was a paper saying I should join the forum and create a build log. I only have the deck on and ribs, so really nothing to be done until I get more tools, and have the space to build, but so excited reading other people's builds. Thank you fore welcoming me!

    Hello There, I don't have too extensive of a history building models, and barely have the space. I live in Queens, NYC and have started building models over the past 3 years. I have built 3 plastic ships, 1 simple wooden ship and a couple airplanes. Nothing too fancy, and it usually takes about a year to finish each of the ships. I was on a vacation up in Acadia National Park and stumbled across a place advertising Model ships. I went it and it turned out to the the showroom/HQ of Bluejacket Ship Crafters. the models were beautiful and inspiring. Seeing a kit of the Yacht America, and being a big America's Cup fan, I quickly bought the kit before realizing what I was getting into. I have since realized that as excited as I am to build this model, I don't have the space and am instead reading posts and learning the new techniques I need to learn before building America. There are many tools I will need to acquire but I am excited about this next challenge in model making. I am in my mid 30s, working in advertising and building models in my spare time.

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.
