Classic solid hull ship kits. Designed for the first time modeller, these kits come with a solid hull that just needs a little shaping and sanding.
The "Dapper Tom" an 8-gun topsail schooner, is to great extent, typical of Baltimore Privateers of a stormy decade when ships were at the mercy of any stranger. Even armed ships were safe only in proportion to their nimbleness.
KIT FEATURES
Historically accurate and perfectly scaled
Machine carved basswood hull reduces building time
Eight cast metal cannon replicate the original 9-pounders
True-to-scale wood, brass and Britannia metal fittings
Detailed plans and clear assembly instructions
Previous modeling experience helpful but not necessary. Solid hull construction is much easier than plank-on-bulkhead.
