The most accurate representation is the the 1/72 kit from Jotika/Caldercraft.
You can downoad the manual, but unsure if they sell the plan set..

Thanks Tomick, I have downloaded the manual. I have been checking the modelling sites but there doesn't appear to be any plans for the caldercraft model. I noted that there are drawings in the parts section of the manual but they don't appear to be to scale.

Might be worthwhile asking them direct, or keep an eye out on such as eBay for anyone disposing of the plan set after having completed the build.

Hi there Brian, depending what scale you are going to finally build in I have a few spare parts from a victory build I aquired. No hull but i do have stern boards and figure heads and a few other pieces. HMS Surprise
HMS Snake
HMS Bounty
HMS Royal Caroline
HMS Victory rebuild
HMS Supply

I am also interested in a scratch build, but the availability of the correct size cannons is a constant issue when constructing a scale model. "Rather try and fail than had failed to try".Sovereign of the Seas Model Space forum: Marcel's build
