I started this build about 11/2 years ago. I put it off because of interest change (all builders know what I mean). I am presently working on a patriotic rendition of the Chesapeake Bay Crabbing Skiff by Model Shipways. This build was on my cluttered work table and due to uncontrolled circumstances beyond my control I caught my cat nibbling on the bow sprit. In a valiant rescue I moved it to a very safe harbor protected by the USS Niagara by Model Shipways below and the dry docked USS Constitution by Model Shipways under construction. After I finish the patriotic Chesapeake Bay Crabbing Skiff I will return to this build. I will update photos to this point in the build.

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.
