Kurt Johnson Posted October 21, 2016 Share #1 Posted October 21, 2016 I have been waiting for Chis Watton's Revenge since in was just a rumor about 3 years ago. I finally am semi retired so I have the time for her and got together the scratch to order her. So just gotta sit on the front steps waiting for the UPS man. I've been following the Revenge threads here at MSW to help pass the time. What I'm wondering does anyone have any resource suggestions for info about English race built galleons or the Revenge? My searches haven't turned up much. Kurt mtaylor and CaptainSteve 2 Quote Member: Ship Model Society of New Jersey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amateur Posted October 21, 2016 Share #2 Posted October 21, 2016 There is a nice book by Peter Kirsch (the galleon). Problem is: that book will almost convince you that the reconstruction of Rolf Hoeckel that was the basis for the Amati-kit isn't quite in line with modern knowledge on the ship-type.....

Baker Posted November 16, 2016 Share #3 Posted November 16, 2016 Kurt, I started building the Golden Hind. In particular, it looks that the shape of the underside of the hull is important. Look at the links on my build log of the Golden Hind. http://www.maritimea... design_web.pdf http://www.maritimea...hesis bates.pdf http://www.wessexarc...2Auer-Firth.pdf http://nautarch.tamu...ers-MA 1987.pdf http://www.patrimoni...logia/18/22.pdf http://www.bricksite...6f37c70ca11.pdf Or, just ask. I try to do my best to reply (But I'm not a specialist ) There will by an update of my buildlog soon .

Kurt Johnson Posted November 16, 2016 Author Share #4 Posted November 16, 2016 Thanks Patrick, I have received the Revenge, but as of now I haven't had time to begin her. I have read the several builds of her at MSW, but at the moment they're all on hold (I hope temporarily.) I have been reading what I can find on Tudor ships, and the info you gave is much appreciated.
