    Calling my Golden Hinde build done👏🎉😁. It may not be the best one done here but for my crack at a scratch build with no scale drawings to work from nor detailed rigging charts, I feel it looks okay. It will not be in any shows and win ribbons but family and friends like it as do I. Thanks for the help of those that posted coments. Now on to working on my kit build Le Soleil Royal.

    I ordered some ship plans of the 1650 Ketch Nunsuch as a possible future build. Does anyone know of someone doing one? I remember seeing its fullsize reproduction one in the Winnipeg museum in Winnipeg ,Manitoba, Canada several years ago and think it would be a nice little build.

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.
