    Hey! Thanks and I am definitely tuned in on this! Also awesome to see a descendant of a former captain! The Amanda F Lewis has always peaked my interest due to the amount of archival work done on it! As far as I could tell from coast guard records she was converted to a diesel screw and is probably drift wood now on a beach in Haiti. The only ship I don't see in your list is the Mattie F. Dean which I think was scuttled in backwater creek near Annapolis! I have a laser cutter function on my end printer so honestly if you wouldn't mind sharing it would be an honor to follow along with my cousin who works at the maritime museum in St. Michaels. I grew up near Brooks point and am I think 4 generations removed from Joe Brooks. I am based on Baltimore now (black sheep of the family moving off the shore haha). Definitely amazing progress!

    This is amazing! If you have any stl files for the hull that you made or even CAD I could borrow I'd love to 3d print it on my end (itching to use some wood PLA filament). That being said, the Amanda F. Lewis was built by my ancestor Joe Brooks. I grew up not far from the Brooks Building Site in Dorchester County, MD!

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.
