    Hi Greg Many thanks. I really like your comment and, I have to agree with you about there being 'something' about the design. In fact, when I was initially scouring the Internet to find a suitable ship to model, for some reason, this ship just stood out with flashing lights and sirens. So, to say that there's something appealing about her design is an understatement, for sure. I just had to build her. Have a great weekend! Cheers Patrick

    Hi Igor I'm not entirely sure, but the scale is something like 1:200. To be honest, I've never put figures on any of my models before. Nice thought, though. Cheers Patrick

    Hi Igor Wouldn't it be great to crew this ship? I'd be the first in line, that's for sure. Cheers and all the best Patrick

    Many thanks! I reckon she's getting there, slowly. The TV's a nice touch, too. Afterall, what self-respecting billionaire would own a motor yacht without one? Thanks once again and all the best! Cheers Patrick

    Hi everyone Thanks for all of your comments and Likes! As is customary for some reason with this build, I've been jumping around a bit, in comparison to my normally systematic approach. Therefore, things may seem a bit jumbled. Nonetheless, I've started to fashion the Sun Deck's "wing", upon which the radar domes and antanaes will eventually reside. In the main deck, I've also started on the galley and the owner's stateroom. Everything's incomplete, though, so there's stll lots and lots of work to go, including the finishing and sanding, but here are the photos anyway. I hope you enjoy them Cheers and thanks Patrick

    Hi Leo Amazzzzzzingly nice work, especially for the size of the hulls you're working with. Nice. Cheers Patrick

    Hi Leo Just out of interest, how long are both hulls? Cheers Patrick
  8. Omega1234
    Hi Leo That sounds really interesting! Nice Cheers Patrick

    Hi Matti Nice challenge you've picked there, but no doubt, it'll be a 'walk in the park' for you (judging by your other ship and non-ship models). Also, I have to add, that those French cutters are very attractive ships, especially given their large sail areas and shapely hulls. I'm gonna enjoy following you once you get going. All the best! Patrick

    Hi Denis It must be a good feeling to be able to work on your Syborn, even though you're still waiting for the planks. I gotta say, as well, that those stanchions and railings look great! Nicely done. Cheers Patrick

    Hi Leo Absolutely love your work! Tell me, what's the story with the second hull? Cheers Patrick

    Beautiful workmanship, Igor. Well done on pulling these stands together. I especially like the name plates. How'd you do the lettering? Cheers Patrick

    Hi Keith Very nice and I can't wait to see her all rigged and ready for the maiden voyage. Cheers Patrick

    Hi Nils I don't look in for a day and look what happens! You've buggered up your neck!!!! I don't envy you. Please take care and listen to your Doctor's advice. Enjoy the massages... Also, wow, wow, wow...your ship is totally outstanding. Love it and I hope you're able to get back to her soon. Cheers and all the best Patrick

    Thanks Keith Welcome aboard! I hope you enjoy Majellan's voyage. Cheers Patrick

    Hi Piet Many thanks! One of my big sisters says that she can still remember the days when, instead of carrying me (as a baby) properly, she'd "accidentally" drop me on my head! Now, not only was that a very long time ago, judging by my age, but, I guess that explains why I have these tremors in my head! LOL Anyhow, have a great day. Cheers Patrick

    Hi Keith I'm with Mark, because, as my late Father always said, "we never stop learning until the day we die". In your case, even the most knowledgeable and skilled builder can never know everything. That's what makes MSW so great...namely the fact that we all learn from everyone. Besides, it looks like you're having way too much fun with your models. You need to share that fun with us! Cheers and bring on the build logs! Patrick

    Hi Mark - many thanks. I certainly enjoyed the day with family and friends. Thanks Steve for the birthday wishes. Hopefully, I'll have another update soon. Hi Greg. Many thanks for the birthday greetings. I hope all's well with you and your family. Hi George. Thanks for the birthday greetings and I hope you had a great day, too. Hi Elijah. Many thanks. I'm hoping to get an update posted soon. Thanks fir the birthday wishes! All the best, everyone and thanks! Cheers Patrick

    Hi Igor Four centimetres in length! Well, in actual fact, my Mystic motor yacht is 5 cms in length; a mere giant in comparison. I tell ya, it takes some serious skills to do what you're doing. Nicely done! Cheers Patrick

    Woohoo Igor Great to see you back. I still can't get over how tiny she is, not to mention how much detail you've put into her. Lovely stuff! Cheers Patrick

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.
