Eric,

 

Did you notice that there was a difference in the placement of the eyebolts on the mast between the drawing and where the holes were on the provided mast?

 

I ca't tell for sure but it appears that your mast has holes in the same places as mine (dah) so apparently those are the correct locations but i thought it worth the question.

 

Yes.  Discrepancies like this have been my biggest frustration with this kit series. I just went with the predrilled holes.  If I remember correctly, as I compared other builds, the predrilled holes seemed to be at a better placement than the plans. The halyard and it’s block were a little tight (which could have been my own doing), but everything else worked out ok.

About the NRG

If you enjoy building ship models that are historically accurate as well as beautiful, then The Nautical Research Guild (NRG) is just right for you.

The Guild is a non-profit educational organization whose mission is to “Advance Ship Modeling Through Research”. We provide support to our members in their efforts to raise the quality of their model ships.

The Nautical Research Guild has published our world-renowned quarterly magazine, The Nautical Research Journal, since 1955. The pages of the Journal are full of articles by accomplished ship modelers who show you how they create those exquisite details on their models, and by maritime historians who show you the correct details to build. The Journal is available in both print and digital editions. Go to the NRG web site (www.thenrg.org) to download a complimentary digital copy of the Journal. The NRG also publishes plan sets, books and compilations of back issues of the Journal and the former Ships in Scale and Model Ship Builder magazines.
