Brett, Thank you for taking us on this beautiful Dorade ride and sharing the construction of that great kit. Enjoy your sail trip. I envy you. Yves

Emelbe, We are all very pleased to see your review and Build Log of this fantastic ship. We followed Chris Watton for a few years, during the design of it (that was the MSW #1 from before the flood/crash) and it is great to see to which extent Amati went to make this kit a "high-tech" kit, with new techniques, new materials and an incredible packaging and documentation. I will be following with a lot of interest. Yves

I understand Keith. It is just that with your usual level of perfection and craftsmanship, I was surprised of that ommission. Yves

Oh....you did not drill the deck before glueing the port holes? Excellent craftsmanship. Yves

I would use existing Build Log as a guide. For instance: http://modelshipworld.com/index.php/topic/8865-muscongus-bay-lobster-smack-by-piet-midwest-products-co-inc-kit-length-15/?hl=%2Bmuscongus+%2Bbay Yves

Beautiful boat. Exquisitely and discreetly weathered. A masterpiece if you ask me. You can be proud of yourself and you had a fantastic idea to picture it with the sea and waves in the background. Yves

Congratulations on your progress on this lovely boat. I like the dark varnish on the boom, as it is very realistic of yachts of that era. Yves

Lovely colors for the wood. Brilliant idea to stain it in red. Yves

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.
