    1955 Flying Tern sail boat

    in Masting, rigging and sails

    Posted

    Hi all

    A friend of mine found the plans in a book from 1958. The plan was for him to build a full size boat. Unfortunately, due to circumstances that is not possible anymore.

    He asked me to build a model of the boat. Most of the detail, I could figure out, but due to the graininess of pictures and drawings, I find it difficult to see how the rigging of the boat works and how it is constructed.

    Can someone, please, assist me with pictures/drawings and a description on how the rigging work and how it is constructed?

    Thank you

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.
