Description

Building and rigging a model of a first-rate ship of the line—such as HMS Victory—is one of the greatest challenges for any ship modeller. The problem? There are too many resources: countless contemporary sketches, dozens of rigging plans, and exhaustive text descriptions that quickly overwhelm even the most dedicated enthusiast. This book cuts through the confusion. Instead of leaving you buried under piles of plans and notes, it offers a clear, practical guide to the standing and running rigging of a Royal Navy first-rate. Each element is presented on one page (or two if needed), showing: The general run of the rope Fastenings and belaying details Rope sizes Types and numbers of blocks used With these concise diagrams and explanations, you’ll always know exactly what belongs where—and why. The appendices bring it all together with overviews of rigging orders in crowded areas and complete lists of the blocks attached to masts and yards. Whether you’re a beginner looking for clarity or an experienced modeller aiming for historical accuracy, this book bridges the gap between artistic drawings and dense technical manuals. Clear, detailed, and practical—this is the rigging reference every ship modeller has been waiting for.
