    Gjoa is smallest of polar ships. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gj%C3%B8a For the Gjoa I chose solid hull made as “ bread and butter”. The material is HDF board 6 mm thick and soft wood for top section. Top section has a greater thickness which allows the cutout the desk line with proper sheer and camber. Top section Hull planking with strips of veneer Tadeusz

    Hi, For determining the thickness of ropes and block sizes I use the tables contained in the book Historic Ship Models by Wolfram zu Mondfeld. http://www.amazon.com/Historic-Ship-Models-Wolfram-Mondfeld/dp/0806957336 The applied formula determines the of the thickness rope standing and running rigging for various historic periods relative to the of the main stay defined as 0.166 diameter of the main mast at the deck. The block size depends of rope thickness. However, in Petersson's books are excellent rigging schemes as also belaying plans but there is no determination of the thickness of each rope. Tadeusz

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.
