I was referred by John at Modelexpo with my problem. 

I have built over 20 model ships and am having  hard time understanding the directions on the Corel model French Privateer "Tonnant"

 

The direction were written in French, translated to Italian by the company that made the model.  The Italian was "translated " to english and that is the problem.

I cannot easily follow the directions on the rigging as the sentences don't make sense and are incomplete.

 

Has anyone worked on the Tonnant and completed the rigging?

Tonnant would be very similar to Rattlesnake as far as the rigging goes, and Modelexpo sells those plans..

You can also download the instructions for free..

The book " Rigging Period Ships Models: " would also be a good source for this type of ship.
