Many years ago I also came across Swedish Naval Historical Museum archive. But it was a mess trying to search for anything. But this is the way to go, thanks!

Do you happen to know of a up to date sail ship drawing archive list per country?

I know most of the ones here in the Netherlands. For example Nationaal archief (Dutch navy):

4.MST Inventaris van de bouwtekeningen van schepen van de Nederlandse Marine, 1683-1996

www.nationaalarchief.nl

And one of the often overlooked local museum like for example:

Collectie | Fries Scheepvaart Museum

Bekijk de collectie van het Fries Scheepvaart Museum online. Hier vind je de volledige collectie, ook alles uit het depot.

For English the RMG Collections site has thousands of drawings in low resolution. They can all be purchased in high resolution. About 800 of them can be found in high resolution for free on the Wiki Commons site. A couple years ago I downloaded all of the 800 high res drawings (45 giga bytes) in case that site crashes down the road. As the ships listed are in alphabetical order and there are another 2000 in low res, I created folders for the high res drawings by number of guns and what each of the drawings are within the folders. I also added contracts where available within the folders and low res drawings if any were missing for a particular ship in high res. Would love to see SoS set up some way to give every member access and the ability to add more high res drawings to the mix.

Thing is, the Swedish collection - and the Danish at that - contains various English ships or plan versions that are not present in RMG - such as privateers or decoration plans, or just missing ships. So they are more complementary than anything else.
