  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.)
