    Good afternoon – I have a beautiful ship – It is the Atlantic Refiner. My father sailed on this, the Dealer the Trader and the EJ Henry, but the Refiner was his favorite ship. Information about this ship is below. My father had this built. It is in impeccable condition in a dust proof case. Sadly, he passed away on July 19th. I do not know what to do with this ship. I have no place to keep it, but I won’t give it away or sell it. It was expensive. Could anyone on this site provide information on what to do, how to sell, who may be interested if donated??

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.
