Hello all. I am new to the forum and getting back into ship models after about a 13 year hiatus. I am starting out small and relearning the proper way to build a ship rater than what I have done previously (although those did not turn out to bad).

 

Got this kit as a Christmas gift and have made a bit of progress.

 

I think I will work on getting the hull of this kayak about as smooth as I can get it since believe the full size versions are fiber glassed over any wood to seal them.

 

Previously I have build he Swift, Lobster Smack and Constellation (AL, Midwest, and AL respectively) although the Constellation is still waiting on the rigging for the main and mizzen masts... for 12 years.

More pcs from last night and today... now if I could figure out how to get the pics to attach in the correct order since the order I select them makes no difference. Oh well, that is for another day.

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.
