THE KIT – Scale 1:64
Just because a kit is primarily aimed at a beginner, doesn’t mean we want to compromise on the quality of materials included. This kit features premium features, yet is highly prefabricated so that the modeller stands the very best chance of a successful completed build.
The 1:64th scale kit has been extensively researched with the aid of an expert in this type of vessel, and has been designed to show her as she would have likely looked in the heyday of Scottish herring fishing off the east coast of Scotland.
This is a highly authentic model, incorporating details such as the steam winch, fish hatches and companionway, steering unit and full rigging. Rigging, however, is simple and suitable for a beginner.
The kit has the following features:
- 9 sheets of laser cut materials, including a laser cut and engraved deck
- 1 photo etched sheet in brass
- Double planking in limewood and second planking in pear wood
- Walnut dowel for masts and yards
- 2 separate rigging thread sizes in black and natural
- 36-page full colour building manual and 7 sheets of 50x70cm plan sets
- Clear acrylic cradle on which to display your finished model
All other materials and fittings required to build the model as shown.
This kit now ships with a FREE sail set. You are under no obligation to use it. The set does not factor into the cost of the kit. (While stocks last)
This is a beginner’s kit with a difference. Designed to be intuitive and very simple to build, but with no compromise on quality of materials. Highly pre-fabricated kit, with double-planked hull, and pear used for second planking. Kit contains MDF, wood, and photo-etc parts. Sails available as an extra.
