He entrusted the Pen Duick to the Costantini shipyard of La Trinité-sur-Mer to evaluate the work to be carried out. The hull of the sailboat was rotten to repair traditionally. Unable to finance the work, he proposed Marc and Gilles Costantini take on an unprecedented challenge to save his boat: rebuild a new hull by applying seven successive layers of glass fabric and polyester resin, using the old hull. as a mold. Polyester construction was in its infancy, such a large and heavy sailboat had never been built before. It was the largest hull of its type at that time. The ship was renovated in the old-fashioned way at the Raymond Labbé shipyard in 1983 in Saint-Malo, and celebrated its centenary in May 1998.

 

On the night of June 12th to 13th 1998, Éric Tabarly died after falling into the sea during a voyage to Ireland with his beloved Pen Duick. He always opposed his sailboat being classified as a ‘Historical Monument’.

MODEL SHIP MEDIUM SKILLS: WOODEN STEAMBOAT KING OF THE MISSISSIPPI (20515)

Our next model ship for medium skills modelers that we present to you is a steamboat. Built entirely of wood and equipped with boilers to move their iconic propulsion blades, this type of boat was the solution to transporting passengers and merchandise along the river until well into the 20th century. Steamboats played an important role in the development of the Mississippi River basin and its tributaries, allowing convenient transportation in both directions of the river. They helped reduce the immensity of America and as ‘theater ships’ they reduced the loneliness of this immensity. America is not just modernism: it is also romance and dreams!

The naval modeling kit of the King of the Mississippi includes all the necessary parts for its construction: parts of 8 sheets of high-precision laser-cut board, made of hardwoods such as birch and linden; and 2 large photo-etched sheets (294×156 mm and 257×122 mm) including many decoration details never seen before in die-cast and brass.

MODEL SHIP MEDIUM SKILLS: WOODEN CARAVEL LA NIÑA (22410)

Our third proposal for a mid-intermediate level boat model is La Niña, one of the three Spanish caravels used by Christopher Columbus on the first trip to the New World in 1492. Built in the shipyards of the Port of Moguer (Huelva, Andalusia) a few years before the trip, it became the captain ship of the expedition after the Santa María ran aground. And now it will delight the most demanding modellers. The expedition left the Port of Palos for the Canary Islands on August 3, 1492. On this scale, the lateen sail that we represent in this model was transformed into square sails. After discovering America, La Niña would return with Christopher Columbus on board, reaching Lisbon on March 4 and finally the port of Palos on March 15, 1493.

Its assembly system using a false keel and frames, like the vast majority of Artesanía Latina’s scale models of boats, brings its design closer to that of the real ship. The modeling kit contains all the necessary parts for its construction: high-precision laser-cut board, birch wood and veneers, various photo-etched brass parts, cast and hand-sewn sails ready to be placed. As a gift, it includes the wooden base for display. After assembly, the model measures 16.33” (415mm) length, 4.37” (111mm width) and 19.48” (495mm) height. On the other hand, it can provide the model of this and the rest of the caravels with more realism even with the Set of 10 Metal Figurines at scale 1 :65 crew members, ready to be assembled and painted, sold separately.

WOODEN CARAVEL MODEL SANTA MARÍA (22411N)

The fourth proposal for a medium skills model ship is possibly the most important in history as it was the one in which Christopher Columbus was traveling when America was discovered at the end of the 15th century, specifically, in 1492. La Nao Santa María, incorrectly called ‘caravel’ because the other two smaller boats that accompanied it were, La Niña and La Pinta – although in the original documents all three were considered caravels – it was originally called La Gallega, whose owner was Juan de la Cosa.

This Santa María Caravel naval modeling kit contains all the necessary parts to build the model, and of the highest quality. High-quality light birch woods cut with precision thanks to the laser; magnificent details made of metal and photo-etched parts; unbeatable and reinforced sails with cotton fabric, ready to be placed – this model includes die-cut cardboard templates to be able to paint its characteristic crosses; and, as a gift so that the model is perfectly displayed, as a work of art that it is, a wooden pedestal with a nominative metal plate. After being built, its measurements are as follows: 19.80” (503mm) length, 10.39” (264mm) width and 19.60” (498mm) height.

The expedition with the three ships left the Port of Palos for the Canary Islands on August 3, 1492. The sails and rudder of La Pinta were repaired on this stopover, to finally depart for the New World on September 6. It was on October 12 when the famous cry of Rodrigo de Triana “Land in sight!” was heard from the La Pinta ship.

The naval modeling kit contains high-quality parts: high-precision laser-cut board; birch wood and veneer; numerous pieces in wood, metal and brass; pieces in high quality photo-etched brass; sails sewn by hand and prepared to be placed; cotton threads; full scale plan of the boat; and, as a gift, a wooden base to display the model once finished.

Ship Models Intermediate Level: Wide and Varied Catalog of Wooden Naval Modeling Kits (I)

Have you already built several beginner model boats and feel like you need to take the leap to the next level? Do you already know how to assemble a naval model in general and do you have basic knowledge of using tools? It’s your time to start building ship models intermediate level of skills, without a doubt. Artesanía Latina offers you, in this sense, a wide and varied catalog of wooden naval modeling kits so you can take the next step in your passion for naval modeling. For this reason, we break down in two posts which are each of the historical and high-quality naval scale models. Everything so that the modeler who wants to evolve his skills knows what he wants to set up as a new challenge.

SHIP MODELS INTERMEDIATE LEVEL: WOODEN AND ABS NAVIGABLE-SUITABLE R/C TUGBOAT ATLANTIC (20210)

We start the ship models intermediate level review with the wooden and ABS plastic model of the Atlantic offshore tugboat. It is a faithful replica of the tugboats of the 70s and 80s of the 20th century. It was an offshore tug, not a port tug, so it was prepared to withstand the most adverse weather conditions. Its entire structure was designed to be a stable and very manageable boat in the water, in addition to being able to tow large vessels such as oil tankers or cruise ships in open waters.

The Atlantic Navigable Naval Modelling Kit contains high-precision laser-cut board parts, hardwoods, photo-etched parts, brass and cast iron. It has numerous details in chemical trimming to be more faithful to the original boat. Likewise, the hull of the Atlantic tugboat is made of very high quality ABS so it can be easily converted into an R/C model by being more resistant and waterproof. Without forgetting that its interior is ready for the installation of the electrical system -not included-. The water cannons are designed to be usable – mechanism not included. Once built, the model measures 41.73” (1,060mm) length, 23.62” (600mm) height and 9.84” (250mm) width.

SHIP MODELS INTERMEDIATE LEVEL: WOODEN TUGBOAT SANSON (20415)

Tugboat from the 40s of the last century. Equipped with a powerful steam boiler of 2,000 HP, the vessel could develop speeds of 14 knots while coming to the rescue of much larger ships. In the mid-19th century, navigation experienced a great revolution. The main factor is the implementation of mechanical propulsion. As a consequence, ships gradually increase their size and displacement, losing in the process the ease of maneuvering in docks and ports. As a result of this, tugboats are born. New types of ships of small tonnage and shallow draft but with more than enough driving power and maneuverability to assist ships much larger than themselves.

The naval modeling kit of the Sanson tugboat includes all the necessary parts so you can build your model. 7 high-precision laser-cut plywood sheets, as well as birch slats and rods, and oak veneer. By the way, it is the first kit that contains oak veneer, Artesanía Latina being a pioneer in including this noble wood in any model on the market. In this way, the model is much more realistic, exclusive and avoids the use of wood from tropical forests. It also comes with 1 photo-etched plate with numerous magnificent details, as well as accessories such as die-cast pieces, brass rods, threads, wooden trim and much more. Once built, the model measures 23.81” (605mm) length, 5.11” (130mm) width and 13.47” (350mm) height.

SHIP MODELS INTERMEDIATE LEVEL: WOODEN DUTCH FISHING BOAT BOTTER (22125)

Our third proposal of intermediate level ship models is the Dutch Botter fishing boat model. These ships sailed for centuries in the shallow coastal waters of the Zuiderzee Sea. The crew, usually between 2 and 4 men, used to keep the catches alive in a livewell located in the center of the boat. Zuiderzee was a large inland sea north of the Netherlands. The completion in 1932 of a large dyke divided it in two, creating a large inland saltwater lake called Ijsselmeeer and adding the rest of the former inland sea to the Wadden Sea.

Its assembly system using false keel and frames, like the vast majority of Artesanía Latina’s scale models of boats, brings its design closer to that of the real ship. The modeling kit contains all the parts necessary for construction. High precision laser cut board pieces, fine woods, brass, cast iron and hand-sewn cotton sails ready to be placed. In addition, it includes as a bonus a beautiful wooden base to build with a nameplate of the Botter fishing boat. Everything fits perfectly in this wonderful naval miniature. Once built, this faithful miniature replica of the Dutch Botter fishing boat measures 18.70” (475mm) length, 4.52” (115mm) width and 14.76” (375mm) height.

WOODEN MODEL ARAB DHOW SULTAN (22165)

The fourth proposal for ship models intermediate level is the exotic Arab dhow Sultan: traditional boat from the coasts of the Arabian Peninsula, India and East Africa. This ship was the primary instrument in trade and the spread of the Islamic faith. Likewise, the dhow was mainly used as a cargo ship, from grain and fish to slaves or minerals. Revolutionary in naval history due to its triangular sails and practically unchanged since its initial designs, it is believed that the dhow was the seed for the construction of the Venetian galleys and caravels, leading to the creation of larger ships with mixed sails.

Sultan is another fantastic ship scale model for modellers to move on to the second level of difficulty in building naval miniatures. Its simple construction system and simple sail make it easy to assemble this beauty of naval modeling. The modeling kit contains a set of high precision laser pre-cut board pieces, wood, brass and cast parts. Also, birch wood and veneer, high quality photo-etched brass pieces, hand-sewn sails and cotton threads. Without forgetting the stand-stand to display the model.

SHIP MODELS INTERMEDIATE LEVEL: FRENCH WOODEN FISHING BOAT MARIE JEANNE (22175)

The fifth option for ship models intermediate level is the wooden model of the French fishing boat, the tuna boat Marie Jeanne. Dedicated to tuna fishing in the months of June to October, this fishing boat reached the coasts of Mauritania on trips of up to two months, since tuna are usually far from the coast. Leaving the French port of Concarneau, the Marie Jeanne sailed between 1900 and 1950. Tuna fishing requires strong and fairly fast boats. In the beginning, ships built for other purposes, generally too heavy, were dedicated to these tasks.

The naval modeling kit contains high-precision laser-precut board, noble woods, photo-etched parts, brass and cast iron. In addition to hand-cut and sewn cotton sails ready to be placed. As a bonus gift, it includes a wooden base with a metal nameplate so that the faithful miniature replica is perfectly displayed once assembled.

Launched in Saint Malo in 1812 by the famous privateer Robert Surcouf with the main objective to attack and capture the enemy trading ships of France. His actions and his legacy towards the city of Saint Malo make the Renard a symbol of the strong French naval identity. Le Renard was the last ship built by the famous Robert Surcouf. In September 1813 he accomplished his greatest feat by defeating the English schooner HMS Alphea in combat, turning the city of Saint Malo into a refuge for the families of the largest privateers in the world.

The scale model kit contains high-precision laser-cut board pieces, birch wood, brass, cast iron and sails ready to be placed. Also, base support with metal plate. Once built, this faithful miniature replica measures 24.21” (615mm) length, 9.37” (238mm) width and 22.04” (560mm) height.

The seventh option for intermediate level ship models is the American schooner Harvey at 1:60 scale. Schooners are a type of sailboat defined by their rig. To a fast hull is added a sail that is also fast and has good ability to sail to windward. They were popular for many purposes, such as transporting cargo or fishing, as well as widely used by privateers. The Harvey is a new edition of this classic 19th century American schooner. It is reminiscent of the lines of the old coastal schooners of the 1860s in the United States that cannot be missing from your naval model collection.

The modeling kit contains high-quality parts such as precision laser-cut basswood plywood, brass photo-etched sheet with decorative pieces, sails with cotton fabric – ready to be placed- and cotton threads.

HISTORY HMS SUPPLY: ‘FIRST FLEET’ SHIP TO COLONIZE AUSTRALIA

Discover HMS Supply, a wooden model ship of the English armed brigantine sailing boat from the 18th century. It was an essential part of the so-called First Fleet of the Royal Navy that colonized and founded Australia. HMS Supply was their oldest, smallest and fastest ship. Built in 1759 as a 175-ton armed vessel, she became the colony’s only link to the outside world after the loss of HMS Sirius in 1790. HMS Supply, precisely, was intended to be aship support for HMS Sirius(1786).

The HMS Supply was a brigantine, that is, a ship that had two masts and square sails. In addition, it was also a sloop, that is, a small ship with a single gun deck. It had eight small three-pounder guns and carried 50 men. Its dimensions were 21 meters -70 feet- in length and 8 meters -26 feet- in width.

From 1759 to 1786, HMS Supply was used to transport naval supplies between Thames and English Channel ports. During this period, she was docked at Deptford Dockyard. There she underwent minor repairs as necessary to maintain her seaworthiness.

On May 13, 1787, the ‘First Fleet’ left Plymouth – England – heading towards the antipodes. Under the command of Commodore Arthur Philip, the convoy was made up of 11 ships, carrying 1,500 sailors and officers with their families, as well as 732 convicts. They were heading to the great land of the south to establish the penal colony of New South Wales – a coast previously explored by James Cook. It would later become the first state of the Australian Commonwealth.

HISTORY II: CONSOLIDATION OF A NEW NATION

On January 19, 1788, eight months and a week later, the fleet arrived at Botany Bay, with HMS Supply being the first to dock. On January 26, 1788, seven days later, everyone arrived at Port Jackson – the future Port of Sydney -. Philip landed to proclaim Australia’s first national day and become the new nation’s first governor. The 168-ton HMS Supply was the fastest sailing ship in the ‘First Fleet’ and served as explorer and messenger during the voyage. HMS Supply rivals Sirius as the most famous historic ship of the new Australian nation. On 26 November 1791, she left Port Jackson and sailed via Cape Horn, arriving at Plymouth on 21 April 1792.

Now, you have the great opportunity to build this great 1:50 scale model ship of the HMS Supply First Fleet 1787 (22420) on our new Modeling Workshop (27648-N), sold separately.

The Indian Girl Canoe was designed by J.H. Rushton, America’s leading canoe builder, for the burgeoning pleasure paddler market, which introduced the Indian Girl model in 1902. To quote Mr. Rushton: “The Indian Girl is strong, light, safe yet fast, graceful yet seaworthy.” This design from the beginning of the last century lives up to its name.

In this regard, it is interesting to know that Rushton hired M. Roundry from the B.N. Morris Canoe Company in Maine to build the Indian Girl. Roundry had the expertise to build quality wood and canvas canoes that Rushton did not. In the 1910s and 1920s, the Indian Girl model became extremely popular and became Rushton’s best-selling canoe.

HISTORY OF THE MOST POWERFUL SHIP OF THE LINE IN THE WORLD, THE ONLY ONE THAT REMAINS AS IT WAS

Today, it is on dock in the port of Portsmouth (Hampshire) in England as a museum piece. The English ship HMS Victory remains the flagship of the Second Lord of the Sea. It is even more important because it is the only ship of the line that has survived to this day in conditions faithful to the originals.

HMS Victory was launched in 1765. The rest of the works such as the rigging, the sails and the armament were progressively completed until in 1778 the ship of the line could be in active service.

Two years after being assigned to command HMS Victory, vice admiral Horatio Nelson participated in the Battle of Trafalgar. The most decisive of the Napoleonic Wars. It was the one that put an end to the French and Spanish navies. The United Kingdom would assume a maritime supremacy that would last until the Second World War.

However, Nelson did not have the opportunity to learn of his victory. He died during the battle in the course of a close combat with the Redoutable, a large French ship with 74 guns. From the tops of the Redoutable, a marksman then reached Nelson.

Now you can remember history by building the section of one of the most important ships in history! The HMS Victory model ship cross-section.

A LITTLE HISTORY OF THE SPANISH SHIP OF THE LINE SANTISIMA TRINIDAD

Launched in 1769, the Santisima Trinidad was one of the few four-decker ships of the line that existed. Despite this, it was not very effective due to its clumsy and slow navigation. Above all, its tragic end in the Battle of Trafalgar (October 21st, 1805) is remembered. On that occasion it was under the orders of the squad leader Baltasar Hidalgo de Cisneros, and with Francisco Javier de Uriarte y Borja as flag captain. After a tough fight, it was captured by the English in very bad conditions, with more than 200 dead and 100 wounded. The English put all their efforts into saving it and taking it to the English port of Gibraltar, being towed by the frigates HMS Naiad and HMS Phoebe. However, it would finally sink on October 24th about 25 or 26 miles south of Cádiz.

It now remains at the bottom of the sea. Its artillery parts were extracted and installed at the entrance to the Pantheon of Illustrious Sailors located in the Navy Non-Commissioned Officers School, in San Fernando (Cádiz). Now you have the opportunity, once again, to build a fundamental jewek of world naval history. Assemble this Trafalgar 1805 edition of the model ship Santisima Trinidad (22901).
