Pride of Baltimore with sails

[townpiper]

Ahoy shipmates 

Anyone have a build log of this ship with sails?

I've been working on the  POB for a few years off and on . Had a major mc accident which cost me my left leg below the knee in Jan 19, so until recently everything was on hold.

 

I appreciate all the great build logs by Karleop and others.

So I decided to build with sails, and leave off all the modern stuff.

 

I've added some pics .You can see that my build has no comparison to the quality of others. But it's ok for an old guy.

Any tips or rigging ideas would be welcome.

Use the search feature (upper right hand side of any page).   I believe I have seen some builds with sails.

Thanks mates

 

MSW plans call for triple blocks on pendants fore and main for peak and throat halliards. The 3 sheaves are left to your imagination. It would seem that another triple block would be needed to complete the rig. Anybody know where to put this lower block?

Thanks and fair winds to you.

Nice looking model!

You could pair a double block to the triple, assuming that the line starts from a becket on the double block.

Thanks.

All of my models have been square riggers, so I'm baffled about throat halliards. I rigged the treble block on a pendant. The plans show 2 lines on either side of the block one ending in a tackle- I have no idea how these attach to the block... belayed to an eyebolt on the rail. Do the lines

 

 go thru a sheave to the boom or is there another type of arrangement like a ring on the block to allow passage of the line?

Then the sheave lanyards...do they attach to a double block on the boom and then to rings on the boom or go allthe way down to the deck? I'm baffled...

Thanks
