Richard Moise Posted November 15, 2022 Share #1 Posted November 15, 2022 I am attempting to locate a detailed set of rigging plans for the Santa Maria to purchase, borrow,etc. in order to restore a wooden model my grandfather built about 80-100 years ago. Ship is in generally very good condition , however, rigging barely remains. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thank you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ccoyle Posted November 15, 2022 Share #2 Posted November 15, 2022 A number of kit manufacturers (e.g., Dusek, Mamoli, Artesania Latina, Amati) produce kits of Santa Maria. If you search the internet for those kits, you will likely find retailers or other sellers who offer the plan sets separately. mtaylor 1 Quote Chris Coyle Greer, South Carolina When you have to shoot, shoot.

clarkt Posted November 15, 2022 Share #3 Posted November 15, 2022 The Anatomy of the Ship series book The Ships of Christopher Columbus by Xavier Pastor has a fairly comprehensive rigging plan for Santa Maria, although any plan from this period has got to be speculative. It would probably be worth it to use more than one source. mtaylor and allanyed 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Belco Posted November 16, 2022 Share #4 Posted November 16, 2022 The new Artesania Latina has made available to modelers the instructions for some of its old discontinued boats, among them is the Santa Maria, you can download plans and instructions at this link: https://artesanialatina.net/es/instrucciones-antiguas/473-maqueta-de-barco-en-madera-carabela-santa-maria-guia-22411-8421426224115.html Regards Belco Canute and mtaylor 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
