Description of sails: beautiful sails sewed on CNC sewing machine. Set of sails is complete, without studding sails, they can be ordered on request.
The sails are sewn as determined by English laws in times of Admiral Nelson. Details was made according to:
The Elements and Practice of Rigging And Seamanship, 1794, by David Steel.: HERE .But even here is also written that some detail positions could vary from standards depending on period and kind of ship (e.g. "Reef band", "Buntline cloths").
You can see documentations for sewing sails in the attached documentation. Sails drawings are from aforementioned publication.
Details that are used on offered sewed sails:
- Upper bend sails is in a standard way larger than the side and bottom. Exceptions are fore course, main course and topsails wherein the lateral reinforcing strips tapering towards the top.
- Fore course, main course and the topsails are strengthen by "Middle bands" - central strips. "Buntline cloths" are sewed from the lower edge of the sail, from places where the sail ropes were fastened - Buntline.
- There is strengthening at the site of reef ropes fastening so called "Reef band". Those on the sails several, depending on the number of reefs on sail.
- Topgalantsails, spritsails corse and topsails and other smaller sails are lined in the corners for strengthen.
All the aforementioned sails strengthening and linings are from the front side.
- There are only linings from the back on topsails (so called “Mast cloths“). These linings prevent wear and tear during chafing sails and Mast Top.
- Staysails and Gibb sails are reinforced at the corners always from the right side when looking at the ship from stern as determined by regulations. Simultaneously staysails with vertical front edge are strengthened along the entire vertical edge.
I believe that these sails beautify your model.
