Thanks. I see. I thought the topsail was lowered at every tack.

No. Time has nothing to do with it. There are photos of completely new schooners, with the same boom. This is an American fishing schooner built in 1884. Photo from 1886. The boom is also curved.

I see. As a version. One more question. I drew a drawing of a Russian military clipper ship. But I don't understand how the topsail tack changes?

Gdov-boat. Fishing and transport vessel from Lake Peipsi. They were built in the city of Gdov, where the name came from. A local traditional sailing and rowing vessel for fishing and work. The length is about 7 ... 8 meters. Late 19th century... late 20th century. Since the 40s, an engine has been installed. The boats had quite a busy life. I have an article about their history from the 19th century. I can post it here. But it is useless for most people, since it is not in English.

Not at all. Each model is good in its own way. In addition, it is difficult to compete with the team. And you don't need to. Р.С. Together with the Alabama by the Kearsarge would look good.

Paint or blackening

I agree. Much depends on the style of performance. Brass Black gives a good result.

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.
