looking for specific plan !! (Barquentine plans)

Contact Jay Benford (benford.us). He has several yachts that are just what you're looking for. You're best off buying his "Cruising Designs" book (about $15), as it covers most of his stuff in this range.

If interested in a larger craft (a ship), then the Smithsonian would be the next logical place. > http://americanhistory.si.edu/about/departments/work-and-industry/ship-plans <

 

Thank you Peter

 

Thank you so much

 

The last real model I made took me 5 YEARS.
Of course I can also make a paper model in 3 minutes.
It depends on what one wants...

 

wow .. 5 years !! did did you post some photos of that model ? i'm sure it is pretty real

 

Brig, old name 'Brick'.

 

I actually found only one photo that shows it well enough.
I can proudly say that when you look into the cabin you will see flower pots - the trees I left away ... (it is the 'HMAV Bounty)

 

Is the two masted one a brigantine? Or a schooner brig?

 

Brig. Brigantine or schooner brig has a fore and aft main (after) mast. The ship shown is square rigged on both 3-section masts with a gaff mainsail, making it a brig. If it had some small differences in the aft most sail it would be a 'snow'. With a 2-section after mast it would be a brigantine or schooner brig.
First pic with boomed mainsail is a brig, second with no main boom is a snow.
Some pics of a model brig built for a movie by me with a helper in 8 weeks. A pic of a modern brigantine with no square canvas on the mainmast, though earlier versions often had a square main topsail. And last some details from the brig model.
