Some years ago, our late friend and builder Charlie Cook built one of our New Bedford Whaleboat kits for our gallery.  Rather than mount it in its cradle, he built a partial bulwark with davits to display it.  We've had a number of folks ask it they could get one, but we didn't make a kit for it...until now.  I just finished building the display model using the production kit parts.  The kit, KLW122A, will be available shortly.  It has four sheets of laser-cut parts, the usual basswood strip and britannia fittings, an instruction manual, and one 24" x 36" sheet of plans.  Scale is 1"=3' to match our Whaleboat kit and is 11.5" long.  Price hasn't been set yet but will be soon..

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.
