Thanks for all the kind words and well wishes. Anja - yeah, it does look fairly good blown up Sjors - If I catch nothing over the next 3 days, I don't come back at all! In that case you, as Senior Officer, are in charge ---- of EVERYTHING.

Just a quick update. The rigging on the T'gallants and Royals has been completed. Main and Forecourse braces and clews coming next. Here's the best I can do, photographically, to depict where we are: Like to wish those up North a Happy Canada Day -- tomorrow, while I venture up to my favorite lake at 10,000 + foot elevation to fish for the elusive arctic grayling (assuming the winter's ice has melted). Back in the shop by the 4th of July !!

Yup, that looks familiar. You work for months keeping things nice and neat and suddenly you have loose lines hanging all over. Get used to it ----it all comes together.

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.
