I am building the modelshipways  flying fish and am having trouble finding the lower mast heights and dimensions from the plans.  I have

built other modelshipways kits and they showed three separate parts. I can’t  locate them on the. Plans.

thanks for. Your help,  Barb

im also scratch  building the flying fish using the model shipways plans. my plans are 1/8" to the foot... 1:96 scale. do you need scale measurements or real world measurements of the masts? ill check my plans later for measurements if you can tell me exactly what you are interested in? 

 

btw there are a few good videos of this ship. i like the begining of this one...

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.
