To Fred Hocker:
Hello Fred, The museum gift shop has told me twice it has no Vasa plans. Can you suggest another source or perhaps you may have a few sets stashed away for serious modelers. I especially could use rigging information. Also, anxiously awaiting your Vasa II book.
Thank you, Shel Urlik

Hi Shel,
I have the plan set as PDFs, but will have to check the status with the shop to see if htye plan on printing any more first (I can't undercut their business).
As far as Vasa II goes, I had a meeting with the publication team yesterday and things are looking good to start on proofing and layout next month.

maybe possible to sugggest the shop to sell these drawings also online, I am sure there are a lot of people interested in these drawings. further good to see that the Vasa II is almost ready, I will put this on my wishlist for Xmas. (delivery begin 2014 would not be a problem )

These are not our plans, but a set drawn by others some years ago. They are not especially accurate or up to date.
Unfortunately, we are currently sold out of the 1980 plan set that we have sold for years, and the shop has not decided if they will order another run or not. We are discussing if we will make these available as PDFs and save the printing costs, but a decision has not been made. I will let the group know once my masters decide what they want to do. A new, fully revised set of plans is a few years away, althought the new rigging plans will be released with Vasa II later this year.
Fred
