    That's a good point about storage of oars on the outside along the poop deck altho I've never seen a period painting of such an arrangement.  It would seem to make sense as the deck would be cluttered.  I've seen some models with the oars thru the oar ports but I always thought it made the ship a bit odd looking for display and made the footprint of the model a lot wider.

    Hi.  Thanks for your comments.   The oar ports were indicated on the plans but the actual storage of the oars were not.  Since I did not want to guess I did not show them anywhere.  I would assume they would be stowed on deck somewhere but that would probably clutter the deck.

    Hi Chuck,

     

    So sorry for the late reply. Thanks for the compliments.  The Yamato kit was the new tool version.  It is one of the best plastic kits I have had the chance to build.  I added the Pontos set of brass barrels for all of the guns.

     

    Best wishes,

    Dennis

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.
