Colonial Schooner SULTANA

Scale 1/64
A Customer Favorite
Built by Benjamin Hollowell in Boston in
1767, the Sultana was seaworthy far beyond her size of 51 feet. The Royal
Navy bought her in 1768, and she became one of Britain's most effective
weapons in the fight against smugglers.
Now you can build a true replica of this historic vessel that
will be over 17" long and 15" tall when complete. This Entry Level kit
features a machine carved basswood hull that requires only light shaping and
sanding. Other wooden parts, including the 2-1/8" ship's boat, are laser cut
for a perfect fit. Plank-scored decking, spars, wood materials and eight
cast metal swivel guns are all included. For historical accuracy, original
rigging is duplicated with cotton cordage and 67 wooden blocks. Detailed
plans by Ben Lankford and a 24 page instruction manual help make this kit a
joy to assemble and display. (Display base and brass pedestals are not
included.)
