A warm welcome to the best modelling forum on the web. Help, advice, support and encouragement readily available with plenty of good natured banter along the way. Like yourself many here have returned to the hobby after a break.
Your 1/200 HMS Nelson will be quite an eye-catching model. I built her sister ship, HMS Rodney, a while ago but only in 1/700 scale.

Welcome Brian. Good to have another boat builder in our ranks.
Hope to see a build thread of the Nelson. I do like a big war canoe.
