    good evening everyone the after sail placement was easier than the main, in the end i removed the standing rigging and took the mast back out to fit, lines are now being reattached, and i am pleased the way she is going the two forward sails are 5-% complete and hopefully will also be on within a few days lovely nice day here so out in the sunshine for a couple of shots

    good evening @Jim Lad lol she is not going to let me forget that she helped me tonight i managed to get the bottom of the after sail fixed to the trolley and put on a bolt rope, and for tonight just temp put it in place, im quite pleased the way it is turning out i think the sails could do with cleaning up a bit, like removing the pencil marks
  31. Kevin
    coming along very nice Dennis

    good afternoon everyone sails the supplied material is washed in 70/30 water pva mixture and allowed to dry, this stops the material fraying cutting the material to the 1/1 plans and drawing the seam lines in, these lines were then sewn over by the admiral, reinforcing strips added i have done both sides
  33. Kevin
    very nicem hope you are both well
  34. Kevin
    good evening everyone took the build outside to get some better photos, and of course the wheelie bin, which i think has been in every log, but very windy here today and the build is very light, the standing rigging continues

    Thank you OC

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.
