@Kusawa2000 Looks like winter must take its toll on her. She looks be in ruff shape requiring constant maintenance.

john: They are doing a major restoration on her right now.. the hull has been completed and they are now working on the structure above deck.. I imagine there has been some scraping and sanding going on at this point.

Thanks Mike, Great shots of the lighting.  Good confirmation of the type of lighting. My research has shown the use of a Dyno for electricity on board. 
 

I will be placing an LED in those cavities along with the inside lighting and over cargo doorways, staircases, etc…

John: good approach. And be aware they light is located on both sides of the ship at the same spot. Great progress.. As mentioned they are doing major restoration on her right now and she isnt open to the public. This is year 2 of the restoration. Based on the progress I suspect they will be at it next year as well

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.
