Hi Guys - very late to this discussion, but my 1 1/2 CENTS:

 

I was searching for pictures of the replica ship under sail, and could not find any that showed boomkins rigged.

 

Perhaps the crew employs other practical work-arounds, although I have no clue what they might be.

We are all works in progress, all of the time.

Good morning Marc. Welcome to this very intriguing conversation. I always say when the world seems to be going to the dogs it is good to have a cave we can get in, roll the stone in front, and just talk ship building!😊

Looks like they take the fore tack to a block on the end of the cathead:

That does seem to be the most practical solution.  I will give a look at removing the boomkins. If I can’t without to much damage I think i will arrange some sort of satisfactory rigging and call it a day on this riddle

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.
