    Description

    This is the first edition of this kit which was produced 12 years ago.  I got it direct from Victory Models in England.  It contains all the original fittings from the first edition never unpacked or used except for the keel and bulkheads to build the hull.  All planking is original wood. The hull was constructed for me as a favor by a professional model shipbuilder (name withheld) who is world-renowned with models in museums around the world.
    Victory Models Model Ship Kits make extensive use of laser cutting for all the wood sheets.
    The fittings and lumber are the best available. The comprehensive plans and highly detail English instructions will assist you throughout the whole construction process. Victory Models are at the forefront of wooden ship model kit manufacturing producing some of the highest quality ship model kits available.
    I
    t is packed to ship in two cartons and has been in climate-controlled storage, the photos of the finished model are stock photos. I have taken photos of the hull unpacked and packed to ship.  If you look online or here in eBay stores, you can see that it is selling now for up to ,200.00 USD new.  In a lot of cases it is not in stock but must be special ordered from Europe as well. I had to stop building 10 years ago because of health issues or I would have finished it.
