    Thank you so much for the recommendation on "The Last Viking," that quote is super helpful! I'm already requesting a copy of Amundsen's Diaries, and I found out that the Library of Congress has volumes 1 & 2 of Roald Amundsen's "The Northwest Passage." I'm sorry to have derailed the thread away from the model Gjøa, but this is the only place online I've seen people currently talking about Amundsen's Northwest Passage voyage and I got super excited.

    Hello, I'm a new member of the forum, exclusively because of this thread. I'm a student currently writing a play about a voyage through the Northwest Passage on a boat made to emulate Amundsen's Gjøa, and this thread has hands down been the greatest source of information and images of the Gjøa and boats like her. The model building and painting you do is absolutely gorgeous, Harvey! I am super curious about the seamanship and daily operations of the Gjøa, and was wondering if any of you could suggest somewhere for me to look, short of physically going to somewhere like the Fram Museum or the Maritime Museum of the Atlantic. Anything like websites, books, or articles?

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.
