Rigging the Charles W. Morgan


Tom Hairston

Recommended Posts

Help! We had an accident at the San Diego Maritime Museum. Someone knocked over the stand, case and ship model of the Charles W. Morgan. There are multiple damages to the hull that I can repair, but the rigging is busted up pretty bad. It will have to be removed and replaced. I do not have rigging plans for this ship. Does anyone out there have a set of rigging plans that can be copied or just an extra set of plans they no longer want? I want to repair this model well enough to go back into the museum.

Model Expo has these plans.

Can't tell how closely they will match your model, but they should be a good place to start.  They may add detail that your model didn't have.

Call Mystic as Roger suggests and ask for Akeia de Barros Gomes who I believe is still the senior curator.  I do not know the direct dial but you can try
