    Thank you all I feel better that you are out there ready to help I think I will scrap plans for now for RC boats and concentrate on improving my skills. So what suggestions do you think have for my next model? I like the larger sizes like 1/4' and up. I like schooners and work boats with rigging. Bluejacket models seem very nice. EFFIE

    Thanks I would be interested in a non-sailing ship that would not be too difficult to build. I plan to interest my young grandson in RC motoring. I would like it to be about 1 1/2 feet long or there about. I would imagine the hull to be precast in a waterproof material because I do not like the idea of making a resin based hull with all of the odors involved. That is question 1 Question 2 is: I have finished building 4 kits. Grand Banks Dory, Armed Longboat, Phantom (all Model Shipways) The last one was the Muscongus Lobster Smack. I enjoyed it very much but I felt the instructions fell very short (Model Shipways) There should have been plans and clearer instructions on rigging and salemaking. I liked the scale. Where should I go now? (Besides the RC) EFFIE

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.
