Re: Model ships ------- 1805 Virginia Pilot Boat "Swift" By Artesan   Message List

Hi George,
I built a model of  that boat by AL in 1981.
It is now on a shelf in my living room.
I made it without sails.
If you want the very best in sails for any model, contact
Wendy Thompson.
She is in Australia. I don't know if  this is a current/working e-mail address.
See Below.
But it is the last one I have....
If it doesn't work, Google around.
Try for a museum in Australia.
She was a volunteer working with young modelers.....
Tell her I sent you.....
I have no commercial connection.
Regards,
Jerry G (Glickstein)

I am working on building this boat from the kit. This kit came in two
versions: one with the sails and one without the sails. I have the
version without the sails and I would like to add them. Does anyone
out there have a copy of the pattern for the sails that they'd like to
loan to me or give me a full-sized copy of? I'd be willing to pay
postage and reasonable copying costs. If anyone has a spare set of the
sails for this kit I'd be willing to discuss buying them. Thanks!

Thanks Jerry, but I'm really hoping to either buy the sails that came with the kit, or preferably to get the patterns and make my own. By the way, re: our...
