    Thanks everyone, 😊 I got really busy at work and now I won't have as much time for the Pinta, but I am sure I will sneak some time on it lol,got some thread from a fishing box, looks good to me For around the sails , and more line for rigging ,plus what's in the kits them self I should have enough. And besides the sea of Galalie boat, I ordered the Viking Long Boat and the mayflower both from Amati. And when I finish this side job I am on ordering the Pegasus from Amati, I know I gone shop crazy lol.

    Planking the side now should go ok everything look like it supposed to.I have a hard time figuring out the right layout for the planks but once you lay that first strip across the rest just fall into place, the sealer really makes the grain of the wood stand out I like it. Can't wait for the planks to be done so I can spray the whole ship. The pace may be quicking, BECAUSE I order The Sea of Galalie boat, it will be here in a few days. Was going to build the Nina next, but me thinks I jumb into the Galalie boat lol. Most likely start a new log for it soon, got the first mate started on the sails for the Pinta ,and found piles of old old fishing line that looks like rope to me so will be using that for the sails . It starting to shine love it, well that all I got will take more pictures of the planking process as I go along . So it won't be long till I up date again. And the new tools and jigs for cutting are helping I notice an improvement in the ship 🚢 😉

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.
