Need belaying plan for Model Shipways Syren

[terry2889]

Hello all!  I am sorry to make this my first post as I have relied heavily on all of your collective hard and excellent work to help me along in my first attempt at building a wooden model ship.  Just finished up the bulk of the standing rigging on my Syren and my 18mo puppy decided to shred my Belaying plans!  Don't feel like having to buy a whole new set for $60 some dollars.  If any of you have a pdf it would be most appreciated.  I've included some pics for your enjoyment!

Hi, Terry.

 

I'm sorry that it took this pet-astrophe to bring you out of the woodwork -- your Syren looks very nice, and I hope we will see more of it. In the meantime, your request for assistance will garner much more attention if it is given a suitable title, which I have gone ahead and done for you. Have you also tried contacting Model Expo for a replacement plan sheet?

Nice looking Syren, terry!  Great work, bad puppy!  Looks like the 20 chapters of instructions can be downloaded from ME's Syren page, and the plans can be purchased for $70.  Model Expo has always been great about replacing damaged parts at no charge if you purchased the kit from them.  Maybe they can look at the shredded plans in the same light.

 

In the meantime, if the puppy has a key to your shipyard room, you'd be advised to change the locks!  Good luck!

Thanks for the help gentlemen!  I think I have just about all of the info in the sheet that I need now that I look over what's left of the plans.  I'll reach out to Model Expo.  Only issue is that I bought my kit on Facebook marketplace so it wasn't through them.  Either way I am really enjoying the process.  I'm thinking my next project will be the Agamemnon from Caldercraft (In a few years).
