Hi Jond I totally understand the importance of getting the fit of the sails perfect,as they are, after all, the engine of the ship. A little bit of tweaking here and there is worth it. Quick question. Will you have multiple sails so that they can be changed according to the wind conditions? Cheers Patrick

Gees, those railings look great, Nils. I'm also taken by the lettering as well. They look great too. Cheers Patrick

Hi Pete I agree with everyone. She's looking great, but I reckon one thing's missing. Can you guess what it is? The trailer! Somehow, I can't get the image of the boat on the trailer ready for transport to the water, out of my mind. I think you posted it in an earlier post. Hint. Hint? What's life without another challenge? Cheers Patrick

Thanks Piet! I hope that I'm up to it, too. Otherwise, if it looks crappy, I'll make sure that my photos will be 'accidentally-but-purposefully' blurry!!!!! Let's hope not, though! But, it'll be fun, nonetheless. Cheers and all the best. Patrick

Hi Bill Many thanks and you're right about not having enough watches, although my wife would disagree. On the other hand, both I and the Swiss Watch industry would think there's never enough, either! All the best! Patrick

Hi Nenad I share your pain. Perhaps in retrospect, maybe a resin would've been better? Cheers Patrick- 4,151 replies

Hi Matti You may have "lost your nerves with the lashings", but, I seriously hope that this would never be your last model.. You've got too much talent and skill to offer us! Keep up the brilliant work, because I'm a big fan of your work. Cheers and all the best! Patrick

Now, that's one hell of a beauty! Nicely detailed and weathered. Full of character and charm. And, once the gravel from Martha's Vineyard is added, it'll be authentic as well. Nice! Cheers Patrick

Hi Greg Thanks! I can't say that the LED lights would be easy, but, it'd be fun trying! Cheers Patrick Hi Nils Thanks. Given the scale of the boat, the engine would only be about a centimetre long. Although, I'll try to fit in as much detail as possible, it'll never be totally accurate. As long as it looks passable, I'll be happy. All the best! Patrick

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.
