    Reconnecting with people is a great thing to be doing, Keith, but from our point of view it's wonderful to see an update on your beautiful 'baby'. John

    Not an expert in the period, but all the photographs I have seen of surviving sailing era warships show the planking flush with the edge of the ports. John

    Chris, can't help you with turnbuckles, but this photo shows pretty clearly where the bottlescrews are located (it is the antipodes after all). All the photos show just one funnel stay on each side. John

    You're right there, Chris. No life jacket boxes needed when she operated as a tug. John

    Great news on the surgery, Michael. Just don't be over anxious to get back into the workshop - give it time to heal properly. John

    You're really racing ahead with her. John

    Aha! Incompetent public servants strike again! Glad it's all sorted Pat. John

    Coming along beautifully. The stern is such a feature of the ship it will pay to spend the time getting it just right. 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.
