    Yes, this model has 2 more boats (1 on the side and 1 on the back of the ship). The author apparently decided not to use them in his model.

    Thanks to everyone. Yes, the drawing a) is presented in the book SEAMANSHIP in the age of sail by John Harland. Here is another drawing presented in the book Modelli Navali by O.Curti showing the launching of a boat in 1850: About drawing b): i found a model HMS Beagle with rigging based on this pic. However i'm not sure if it accurately represents the actual ship and the era. One of the books that heavy cargo (provisions and cannons) was loaded onto ships this way. This model does not include the rigging of the boat. This is the author's idea. And I am trying to find out how close it is to reality.

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.
