The HMS Prince sails again. Shots of the 20 inch model are in 10 - 20 mph winds.

Looks really good. The model seems to hold its own on the water pretty well. Now that this one is done what's next on your list?

RE: HMS PRINCE
An HMS Victory, 40 inch. About 3/4 of the way done. I will post some photos. Thanks for the good words. The HMS Prince is very stable. Because of the keels and weight of these, they are very, very stable in high winds up to about 35mph. However, less than 10mph winds, they tend to meander a bit looking for the wind. Much like the originals.

Heres a quick shot of the HMS Victory without its keel. About 60 pounds of ship. Note the keel support underneath and the rudder still being worked on. Sailing shots later when complete.

RE: HMS PRINCE
That is one impressive rudder!

RE: HMS PRINCE
Size does matter on scale rudders of square riggers. With the amount of weight and keel (60 pounds), it won't turn effectively without it.
