    I just couldn’t stop at that today and have just kept on going this is going together pretty smoothly nice straight and square. That will be all for today, will be stringers.

    I have began working on this and should be done glueing the frames together this is my third build and biggest yet. I will be making this RC and I’m setting my finish date for opening day for boating here in Seattle (May 3rd) so I have a bit of work to get done and and may have some questions along the way. I have not seen anyone post much further than just glueing the frames together so if anyone has done a similar build please show me thank you day 1 frames glue. Don’t mind the plaid wax paper it is all I could find but it’s slightly helpful lining things up

    Up next is going to be a challenge and I haven’t really found anyone who base done the miss adventure rc. Ill start a log once I get going on it

    Calling the boat done it will be getting a custom stand eventually and it will always be my first boat! I love it

    I’ve been avoiding doing the sails long enough and got the main done today and should be able to finish up tomorrow leaving only a different stand than what the kit came with. So for my first time doing sails it could be a lot cleaner and I may remake them eventually but I’m liking it and looking forward to start my next project. I did take a break and build their dory kit but didn’t take pictures along the way

    I’m looking for any other miss adventure builds and can’t find any except for some blurry YouTube videos from 2009 if anyone has anything that would be great it will be my biggest and first Rc build

    I have been searching for a hobby for quite some time and have found this to be super enjoyable. I am nearly finished with my first sailboat and now have three more boats to build. I will be taking a side step from my lobster smack build and do the model shipways dory. I also was looking for something a bit challenging and I am going to try my hand at building their Rc miss adventure which I have looked for build logs for and have not found any. I am very excited to get these going and think I have my time occupied for awhile now. I am quite sure I will Be asking some questions along the way and thanks for all the help in the future!

    Hardware and blocks are done I believe all I really have left is to make the sails and rig it all up which I have never done. It may not be a super polished model or quite perfect but I think I have done ok for my first time.
  9. Andrewiscookin
    Done with painting and almost all the wood is attached then onto the sails and rigging
  10. Andrewiscookin
    This is my first build and I have pretty much got the hang of things so far with the decent instructions I’m a couple weeks in and am waiting on some paint and stain to arrive before I move on. More painting and than rigging and making the sails. It’s been some learning by reading and some guessing I am excited to get this one finished and start my next build.

    This may be my favorite boat in Seattle I’ve only been on a couple times once at harbor days in Olympia and then last week for the holiday light cruise I would really love to build a model of this someday hope you are able to get this one done

    Howdy yall im Andrew found this while looking into starting the hobby and have since began and am loving it. Currently working on a kit muscongus bay lobster snack and have made great progress a bit at a time. I will do a build log for that once I get a chance as well as another kit that I picked up that will be using a different set of skills as I learn. Thanks for all the knowledge and information as I’m sure I will have some questions along the way

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.
