In order to get power and speed from the wind, a square rigged ship is sailed on a course where the wind is actually blowing from the stern area of the ship towards the bow. The closer the wind is to dead astern, the more power and speed. Hence, a funnel facing forward on a square rigged ship is actually trailing the wind. The same holds true for flags - which would also follow the wind direction by blowing from the stern towards the bow. Best regards, -Stu

I still not have commenced my NL kit and daydream constantly about starting same but do not have a place/workshop area to ensconce myself and work away for 5yrs + I am however planning to build a small area within the year so hopefully my daydreaming will come to an end :) - I do look forward to the addits to your build files and one day hope to be able to "tap in" on your experiences. Well done and best regards - Greg Rayner --------------------- Hi Greg, very good to hear from you again! Another e-mail is on the way. -Stu
