What an interesting little vessle, Derek. One would think she'd be a bit of a handful to sail around harbours and inlets. John

Sorry Melissa, but that space looks far too neat and organised for serious model making! Looks like you're all set to go. John

Definition of 'Single' WRT rigging/ropes
Jim Lad replied to BANYAN's topic in Masting, rigging and sails
Patrick, the lifts were usually secured to a pin on a fife rail at the foot of the mast, so it looks as thought 'single lift' may have meant just that - a single line from the yard arm up to a single block and then down to the deck. John -
Now there's a skill I know nothing about! 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.
