    Hahaha, that might hsve been me asking ladt year n never got an answer. I'm building the Flying Fish clipper n have some riggs up n the amt of actual line on deck would be imposable to put on a pin. Besides it is working rigging so it would need to be ready to work. Thus my question last year concerning balentines we used on the schooner i once sailed. Surprised the goat hadn't eatten the ropes in that picture.... Very tidy deck... Maybe balentines?

    That is fine when you are stoing a short line. What about when you have 50 or more feet of line on deck when a sail or mast has been raised? When i spent some time on a schooner, we learned how to stow rope in a balentine on the deck since this wold be the most efficiant anti fouling method. Was the balentine used this way on Clippers n other sail ships?

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.
