    Not sure if it's the same ship, Gary, but a search of the shipping section of the newspapers of the day would certainly give you a good clue as these usually listed the name of the ship's Master. As the 'Meteor' I'm building was a Hamburg ship, the Master should have a German name. John

    Hello Jim, and a warm welcome to the forum from 'Down Under'. Ferrocement yachts were once very popular. Perhaps you should consider building a model of one just to keep your hand in! John

    She's a big beast when you see her upright like that, Keith! John

    You also still have the 'Trincomalee' in Hartlepool and the 'Unicorn' and 'Discovery' in Dundee - at least! John

    That looks fairly reasonable, Keith! Beautiful work, mate. John

    Oops! Missed the 'Britannia in the list! Besides, my brother-in-law lives in Fort William, so still south! John

    Sounds like all your ships were down south, Pat. Did you manage to get up north at all? John

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.
